[Satan]

Part of my third semester, I will be able to study in a programming language of my choice, my main issue is, I don't really know what to pick.

I've decided to re-attend college, this time for Computer Science instead of Cosmetology.

The language options are as follows:

Java
Visual Basic
Python
C++
C#

Some background:

I hate writing Java, and always have.

Most of my programming experience has been Visual Basic.

I have no experience writing anything other than an exceptionally basic Python bot for an online site, and I don't remember any of it.

The other two, I have no experience with.

My goal is to get the most mileage out of my studies, which would include learning the most useful language, but if that's Java, it'd take some serious things to convince me that its worth my time.

(E.g. pay differences between developers of specific languages being higher, better job outlook, etc)

Any help that's descriptive and informative would be much appreciated.
