Rather than difficulty, I'll rate them for how much work I had to put into them in order to do well (same difference??) and this will compare to nursing school which for me is a 10:
Microbilogy ......................................... 9
General Chemistry I(Not intro)................ 9
O-Chem.............................................. 9
Biochemistry........................................ 9
A & P.................................................. 9
Nutrition.............................................. 9
:) Heck, it was all hard work! Re enjoyment, I hated micro, tolerated the chems, and loved A&P and nutrition.

Anatomy being strictly rote memorization (which I didn't have the time to put the effort into) was HIDEOUS.
Each class builds on another. You can't really appreciate physiology on a cellular level without chem first, for instance, so that's why you suffer through it. I found even classes that I had difficulty with made more sense later when the big picture started to come together. You'll make it!

1 = easy 10 = hard
Microbiology .........................................5
General Chemistry I(Not intro)................n/a
General Chemistry II..............................n/a
Biochemistry........................................n/a
A & P I...............................................**
A & P II..............................................**
Intro to Nursing...................................n/a
Fundamentals of Nursing..........................6
Techniques of Clinical Nursing.................n/a
Nutrition..............................................n/a
** I had to take anatomy as separate than physiology. Anatomy= 7, Physiology = 9.
Chemistry was Chem 100 and it was awful--a 9.
all the n/a's are classes I don't have in my cirriculum.
Intro to nursing isn't really a class but I did have a one-credit foundations class which was a 1.
My main first semester nursing class was fundamentals and it included clinical. I give it a 6.
