‘Hardest’ depends on your expectation (gap) of the subject. If you choose EE because you think it is all about playing with radios and circuits and robots, then you might be frustrated by all the fourier integrals and wave equations and lyapunov bound that go behind the theory; if you study ChemE only because you like chemistry, then you might be overwhelmed by the repertoire of fluid dynamics and maxwell’s relations and enzyme kinetics that go beyond ‘pure chemistry’.

It is only hardest when you don’t know your strengths well or have wrong expectations.
