Rank your IB subjects in order of difficulty

Everyone has a subject in their IB combination that they hate the most, or find too difficult, so it would be interesting to find out if there are any common trends.

I can actually think of a few now to be honest :redface:

My subjects in order of difficulty:

Maths SL (most difficult)
French SL
Economics HL
Biology SL
English HL
Music HL (easiest :smile:

)

But you gotta admit, Biology is much more interesting than ESS :biggrin:

Not many schools have this option, so it'd be interesting to hear your views on the subject
