maths, probably. it's probably the hardest, but then that doesnt mean they're all more intelligent than people who study the others

Rank them how? Complexity of phenomenas studied? Complexity of methods used? Accuracy of measurements? Interesting? Dangerous? Gay?

I prefer the picture where the philosopher is behind the mathematician and is all "maths is just applied logic," followed by another sociologist behind him.

In order of how "quantifiably accurate" they are:
Maths>Physics, Chemistry,Biology >Psychology

In order of deriviation:
Physics>Chemistry>Biology (Cells and Genes)
and
Biology (ethology)>Psychology
Although psychology isn't a natural science (yet) and Maths isn't a science.

In order of what's best:
Do what you love, don't let douchebags on the internet with intelligence issues shit over your dreams.

Intelligence it typically split into fluid and crystalline intelligence. Maths, working with abstract problem solving and tasks related to logic, are probably the "sharpest" ones (ie: best developed fluid int.).

On the other hand, you'll have biologists and psychologists leading the crystalline intelligence - having more "knowledge", being well read, well spoken, etc.

If one were to say being "smart" is to take the path between novel problem solving, and knowledge, I suppose physists would be the "smartest" ones.

Which of them that have the most useful intelligence, and should be ranked highest, is of course another topic.

Psychology first because it lets us think and we couldn't even know what OP was asking if we didn't know how to think.

Biology next because without animals and plants there would be nothing to eat and we would all die.

Chemistry next people and makes soap and gas and things to make us clean and life better but we can still live without that stuff just not as good.

Math next because counts lets us have money and lets us trade and have markets and lets us be civilized.

Physics last because it really kills a lot of people with falling and heat and cold, but I get is lets us cook stuff and keep things cold is refrigerators so it is kinda good.

This is what psychology majors actually think.

if we had complete mastery of any one, which would have the greatest benefits:

maths/physics: we pretty much win the universe
chemistry: shortages solved, loadsa chemicals and shit, medicine ect.
biology: mastery of life, able to influence it ect.
psycology: HaHAHahahaahahahaAHahaha get out of here.

Wouldn't complete mastery of psychology require complete mastery of biology, chemistry and physics?
