Edit: Why the neg rep? This is about difficulty to the individual student, not which is the best or anything... -.-

You need to find Psychology a hard subject in order to get positive rep :L

My a-levels were six years ago, but ok. Hardest to easiest;

Psychology - loads of cases and random info to remember, and I didn't find it that interesting so I struggled to force myself to memorise it.
Chemistry - Big jump from GCSE, from what I remember. Not too difficult, though, really, just slightly harder than bio/maths.
Biology - Not really difficult either.
Maths - Easiest by far, because I found it the most enjoyable.

You put psychology above maths/chemistry/biology? wow that is so weird.

From "easiest" to "hardest"

Maths
Psychology

And by easy, anyone who says AS/A levels are easy will fail and/or is weird.

From Hardest to Easiest:

1) English Literature - I don't know, I just find it difficult
2) Politics - It's in the middle. Not so hard as English but easier than Media and Politics
3) Media - In reality it's par with Economics. It's quite easy
4) Economics - I find it the easiest by far, there's much less to learn compared to other subjects
