So OP and other posters here are comedians. Where is Economics , in fact all social science courses
are harder than engineering and science courses.

Because Economics and other social science courses are base on past, current and future events. So when
you are writing exams, you are expected to prove that you know what you are saying. Meaning there is no
universal standard answers.

Unlike engineering and sciences where universally 1+1= 2, in fact more people are graduating with first class in
engineering, sciences, Mathematics and Statistics than social sciences course like Economics.

PHYSICS the grand master and father of science is not on your list. People make first class in Engineering, law and others. Have you met a first class in physics? If you have friends or family member doing physics ask them

yea, but not actuarial science in degree but as in professional exams,those exams are hard and fragile and balls.
SOA.org exam-P, Financial math,MFE, MLC, Construction and evaluation of actuarial models, plus VEE courses, all these just for Associate in associate, before you go the ladder of a fellow, that's in another planet.

Re: Six Hardest Courses To Study In Nigeria by Ihuomadinihu: 10:38am On Nov 21, 2014
Nigerians under rate certain courses. There is no simple or difficult course,there is equally no less important course in the world. Some of the aforementioned course need more expertise,so more time is allocated to it. If you studied English in school and wrote exams on the complete works of Shakespear,you will surely testify that it's a difficult course. At the end of the day, first class honours would not be accorded to you,simply because it's not your first language. My point of view is that all courses work together for good. None is more difficult or less important.

what about philosophy?
Re: Six Hardest Courses To Study In Nigeria by 0955eb027(m): 10:41am On Nov 21, 2014

Medicine:
The fact that it involves human life makes it even more
challenging; it takes longer number of years than any
other course in Nigeria before they are tagged qualified as
it deals with human life, the students are compelled to
read heavy-weighted textbooks and they engage in
reading almost all the time . Passing MBBS is another ball
game and includes courses like Anatomy, Biochemistry ,
physiology, this poses a lot of worry to medical students ;
most of them even go for thanksgiving when they
eventually pass . Medicine as a course requires a lot of
commitment from the student considering the length of the
courses and examinations involved .
via: telegraph.co .uk
Chemistry:
This may sound easy and more fun when viewed from
practical sense but in a more academic sense it involves a
lot of math and physics making it more challenging to
study. It involves nomenclature, reactions , stoichiometry ,
molarity and thermochemistry and host of others .
Engineering:
As the name implies involves designing . “ Engine students
“ as they are fondly called take wide range of courses in
engineering faculty including petroleum engineering , civil
engineering , electric and electronic engineering and host
of others before they even get to the point of handling
courses specified for their department, and of course there
are lots of professional exams to go through before one is
qualified as a professional engineer to practice in Nigeria .
Law:
This requires a lot of skills and hard work. Law students
read a lot of written materials and must comprehend , and
accurately recall legal provisions and use the relevant law
in new situations. They must be able to take a logical
approach and apply knowledge to factual situations. It
also involves length of time , courses and examinations
while in school and after school before one could practice
as a professional.
via: telegraph.co .uk
Mathematics and Statistics:
At first when applying for this course , you could think it
will be easier to deal with , it will interest you to know that
abstract maths is not that easy , it is not just about being
good at calculations ; it involves estimations , calculus ,
geometrics and host of others . It is important that you
know that you may deal with calculations all through your
stay in the institution .
Architecture :
This is one of the most complex courses in faculty of
environmental sciences to study. A lot of time , people look
at it as a very easy course involving only the act of
drawing, it is important to know that it involves much
more than mere drawing and designing . On graduation
they are faced with lots of professional exams before they
are able to practice as a professional. add ur own
"At first when applying for this course , you could think it

What do u mean by dis statement?

Guidance and counselling should be on that list far above law and engineering courses.

Fact....Down's syndrome( low IQ) patients had studied all courses known to mankind and excelled but with the exception of MEDICINE and GUIDANCE/COUNSELLING.
