Chemistry is the hardest. It's a lot of tough, high level academic work. And you also have to be the professor's lab assistant, spending endless hours toiling away in the labs.

They are all hard (from reputable schools at least). By this stage, one is entering an area they are already pretty darned good at so the definition of difficulty isn't easy summarize. Different programs stress different things.
