I've always found any heavily writing-based classes to come the most easily.
Opinion-based writing, maybe; but when students must come up with sound and eloquently expressed arguments, based on synthesizing theories and existing studies, using data, etc. - this is where many will fail to do well.
With math...I think the failure comes not from the difficulty of the subject, per se - but because, more often than not, the pedagogy is bad. Schools also don't allocate enough time for students to practice higher-difficulty problems...which become easy once you figure out the steps/tricks/algorithm.
They teach instead a lot of flowery math information, most of which is low-difficulty and a waste of time; also the pedagogy doesn't separate the IMPERATIVE formulas and skills from the math noise.
That being said, the subject I found really difficult in high school was organic chemistry. They completely lost me there. Maybe the teacher really sucked but I remember the whole subject became a huge non-decipherable affair.
If physical education is a subject, then physical education was my easiest class. I love PE and always looked forward to PE. I was always athletic and had passion for exercises.
For me Art then English..I much prefer subjects where I dont have to use my memory too much as Ive always had a terrible memory for dates, numbers etc... and found Art and English easy..
