Should i choose this career?

Do you have a genuine passion for It? If not, no.

Is it profitable?

Define "profitable".

How hard is it to get the certificates?

It's only as difficult as the time and effort you plan to generate.

And any general advice!

I haven't a single degree In any sector nor attended college, so academically, I cannot personally advise.

I wish you all the very best with It.

All of this is true.

If you're concerned your maths isn't up to standard, get a tutor. I suspect that degree is highly transferable for many careers. However, you asked if it is a career you should choose - yet you mentioned a degree, not a career. What specific jobs would you like to do? The answer to that question, will answer all your other questions.

If you're unsure of career ideas, try doing a job search. See what comes up and what kind of qualifications they want.

For general advice: It's ok to change your mind. There is such a thing as transferring. Don't be afraid to make a mistake. Also, if you have access to a careers advisor - SPEAK TO THEM. This is exactly what they're for.
