Oh, definitely.

Of course it depends a little bit on how smart you are.

But from my ex-boyfriends who are math and engineering majors, I've seen that advanced math/physics topics aren't that hard to understand. It's all there in the book, a logical progression from step A to step B to step C . . . What's tough is remembering how to apply all of these steps in the right order and then keeping them all straight in your head. That just takes a LOT of studying and practice -- not a genius.

And as for the easy major/hard major, I don't think they exist. I couldn't pass an art class anymore than I could pass an advanced physics class. My engineer ex-boyfriend couldn't write a decent short story (my major!) to save his life. It's just that so many people have math/science blocks that they think math and science classes are very hard when they really would just take a lot of work to get past your math/science block.
