<p>Chiming in late here on the "humanities vs. science" debate and the relative difficulties - I think it really does depend on the strengths of the student, not on some inherent "hardness" of the discipline. I double majored in English and Chemistry (with a postgraduate degree in Chemistry), and to me, organic chemistry was no more difficult than "Romantic Poets" (and actually much easier than Shakespeare.) Different skill sets, different talents, but surely one was no "easier" than another.</p>
