i remember asking about this before... notice how physics majors have a higher iq than math majors? someone responded that there are more women in math going into education, and if you look at other charts that is true... i do think there is more to it however - when you are doing physics vs math there are very different states of minds you have to adopt...

with math you essentially have to show tautologies and the largest difficulty is in playing with the abstraction so everything fits together... learning math i think might be easier than physics since you need more creative problem solving in math - it is more so a matter of you finding the right insight

with learning physics however, you have to use your analytic problem solving abilities which is far more g-loaded... the problem with physics-learning is that you are giving a set of tools, and you are tasked to decipher what the question is asking... you need your physical intuition for things or you are going to have a bad time, and rote-memorizing questions isn't gunna work...

i think in both, you need a plan of attack and then the questions are trivial, but with physics there is more variety in possible plans of attack... with math you have direct proofs, proof by contradiction, etc, and you just need to get exactly which and how you are gunna pull it off. physics you need to understand how several variables interrelate with eachother, as well as have a solid understanding of how a system progresses over time

biology in comparison is far easier since there is very little of a problem solving component... honestly, the largest issues people have with bio is that they don't know how to properly study. i remember suggesting some guys studying bio to just use flashcards, but they just never bother to. seriously, with flashcards i was able to study 700+ words in a few months when i was like 15...

cs is high up if you are taking more theoratical courses as you need a mix of the above for m&s

I do biochemistry, and I can say that it's 80% chemistry, 15% quantum physics and 5% biology. The problem is that whenever you get balls-deep into biology, you always end up doing chemistry.
For example, photosynthesis. Biologically speaking, shit's easy. CO2 goes in, food goes out, also needs light. But then you go deeper, and suddenly you're talking about how photons excite electrons in the molecule, and then those electrons fly off the central reaction center chlorophyll, and then it goes into the photosystem II, and then the cytochrome B6-F complex, and so on...
And this stuff can hardly be called biology anymore. It's just organic chemistry on a slightly bigger scale.
Biology deals with taxonomy, mostly. That's why every biology course begins with the theory of evolution. Biology doesn't actually involve any hard science beyond that.

it isn't too unbelievable, especially if they are reading any original text by philosophers. philosophy requires a very high verbal iq to study. there is a lot of vocabulary, and a lot of the verbal syntax is very sophisticated in philosophical texts. not only that but it also requires more logical thinking than it may seem on the surface. it still isn't on a comparable level to math or physics, but it is enough for philosophy majors to have higher math scores than other social science majors. also, intelligent people in general would be attracted to metaphysical issues

As a physicist, I would say all STEM/useful degrees are equally as hard; it is just our specific interests that allows us to study hard in what interests us the most. As a physicist, I look at my sister's post-doc work in immunology and think "what the fuck is she even on about". Similarly, she looks at my physics and thinks "what the fuck is he even on about".
We are only as good as what we are doing, so from the mountain we climbed to get there, every other mountain looks maybe just as high, or a little shorter, but so much further away than when we began. A chemist is no better than a biologist is no better than a physicist. We have all devoted time to studying something in-depth, so to say something is easier or harder is pure ignorance.

No major is more g-loaded than math, sorry to break it to you. Math majors in that chart have lower average IQs than physics majors for two reasons: first, as you already noted, many students study it as a prerequisite for math education (especially women), and second, statistics majors are counted together with math majors (stats majors are notoriously dumb).
The 2nd groups has a higher impact than the first (since some physics majors also study it intending to become a school teacher).
If you take the stats majors out, the average IQ for math students will be much closer to the average IQ of physics&astronomy students.

Computer Science is the hardest.

Computer Science is basically math++, i.e. a CS graduate is considered elite, capable of mastering in 1 year what math graduates do in 2 years. The world's elite universities will tell you right away that as their CS student you are considered the best group they have and that math students go slower than you are, and increase your load to crazy levels As a CS student, you are expected to master (continuous) calculus, discrete calculus (discrete math proofs, hypercubes for parallel algorithms), optimization (machine/deep learning, compilers), category theory (functional programming), logic (up to automated proofs, i.e. including set theory), differential equations, topology (computational geometry, distributed algorithms), probability and statistics (reinforcement learning, queueing), number theory (cryptology), graph theory (almost everywhere)... There is no functional analysis needed yet, but it's heavily used for PhD degrees anyway. You need to know all this down to the level of proving theorems if you want to achieve anything in CS. While pure math & physics progress slowed down, the advanced in CS are fast and accelerating. CS is the major of future. Math jobs are shrinking; CS jobs will grow even more than today.

Please revisit my "peak of ignorance" image.
A theoretical mathematician would have exceedingly limited bearings in theoretical and experimental physics.
Theoretical physics requires intuition about physical systems and goes far beyond just "hurr durr I did some integrals".
Experimental physics is even further disjoint and is closer to chemistry, computer science, and engineering than "hurr durr I did some integrals".
A mathematician would be unable to build a $600,000 cathode strip chamber test stand, fabricating charge-sensitive front-end electronics by developing an ASIC for charge collection, digitization and shaping, with readout over ethernet and the entire thing controlled by an FPGA, and on top of that write tracking software that will process vast amounts of min-bias data that will later pair data from detector electronics and perform detector evaluations.

engineering and tech is basically applied math/physics and many things that don't look applicable today can have a use in the future, like quantum mechanics now allow our displays and microprocessor, said that I still thinking your not serious and I'm being baited

> inb4 Calculus 2 (and those fucking Taylor Polynomials) was the reason I switched from BME to Physiology and Neurobiology

Same, except I'm becoming a flight physician. I'm confident I could learn the math eventually but it just wasn't worth the pain.

I know it's a shitposting thread and all but at least don't make it so easy for him, with falling back on what you yourself warned about.

Perspective not defined. Hardest for whom and where?

It can be harder for somebody to get humanity degree than for somebody else to get physics.

Generally more dumb you are(normalized dumbfuckery) the hardest is any degree. With specific dumbfuckery the hardness of specific degree differs.

you're in for a world of pain. also most life flights have a flight nurse, not a physician, and it's insanely competitive.

Not op but this is false. There is very little day to day math in clinical medicine. You can suck at math and still be an amazing clinician.

Now if he said he wanted to do pharm research in computational biology and sucked at math, then that would be an issue.

That doesn't change the fact that if you can't handle Calc2lmaointegrals you will have a hard fucking time in medical school

Not really. I know plenty of kids in my graduating class who are residents now that would have a seizure if you tried to make them do even the simplest calculus.

That being said, the best of the best doctors I know were all pretty big math heads in undergrad. Definitely not a requirement to be a doctor but certainly helps.

Calc 2 is required to get into medical school and since most people who get in have gpa>3.7 they probably got an A. Sorry you got mogged by biofags who didn't think twice about your area under the curve shit

either physics or math. but I think physics is a little bit harder. since it borrows much for all the other sciences. but simply because it's the most difficult doesn't mean it's the most interesting, or the one with the most potential.
I thought about studying cs with neuroscience/psychology 'cause I'm interested in AI. either that or mathematics.
but since AI is becoming a thing cs seems more interesting. and if you wanna expand on mathematics, you can take math-cs major, right?
and don't say that cs is a superset of mathematics. it's obviously a subset....

Depends on the university. Probably EE Honors at my university, just by work-hours. CS Honors is a distant second. Math and its ilk is about as difficult as you make it, since you can choose to take seven graduate courses at once if that what you want.

You may as well be estimating by their star sign. The GRE is not designed to test for IQ.

i concur. Especially because of the doubled workload here in germany for that degree in the first year(s) (you have all the mathematics lectures but also theoretical and experimental physics for which you have to do coursework every week to pass)

They have lite math cs below chemistry. True CS majors take more math than physics major.
