Considering dropping a major with FT offer in hand

Hi WSO, I would appreciate some advice. I am a second semester senior who is considering dropping a major. The reason is that I am currently taking the core classes for the second major, but they are giving me considerable anguish (as I hate the material), and I do not think I can make an A with them. I currently have a 3.9+ GPA and taking the grades from these classes will certainly drop me below 3.9. I am also heavily considering graduate school (JD or MBA). Do you think my FT offer will get rescinded if I drop the major now?
