What is the HARDEST A LEVEL (POLL)-LETS END THE DEBATE

thank you for helping me out. Good luck with A2,i hope it goes well for you.

Being someone who has always been a bit of an all rounder, I can tell you for a fact, further maths and physics are the hardest A-levels by a distance. Nothing against essay subjects, but it is usually easier to attain the high grades in those subjects comparison to further maths and physics.

Having done further maths and physics I have to say that physics is less difficult. I mean they're both difficult, but for someone with average mathematical abilities (at least in my case) I found further maths to be much more difficult. Can't say much about chemistry or biology though!

Can't agree more with this!

Yeah and I think you were right in saying that it is often (generally) easier to get marks in essay subjects. Especially as the exam boards have very specific words you must mention (or not mention) in physics to get marks.

I like how the only main considerations for a hard subject are the core sciences.

I did maths, further maths, physics and chemistry but drama and theatre studies was by far the most challenging. Of course, it's all subjective, so for me the sciences came naturally without an awful lot of effort, but it was the art which required me to really push myself to do well in.

Surely what makes a subject difficult is ultimately its position as being outside your comfort zone? (For the most part, of course; I'm not going to attempt to equate further maths with general studies...)

some people on other threads said the sheer amount of content makes it the hardest idk tho
but as i remember u from another thread u have photographic memory which must make it 10x easier for u

Exactly! Essay subjects are so much more general, physics is so specific!

which was hardest and easiest out of further maths chemistry and physics and why and what did u get at A level and gcse in those subjects btw as u seem really smart to be oding them
