Ranked: The majors with the hardest finals

Sucks if you study Engineering


Engineering, Medicine and Science students are among those most likely to fail a final this semester, according to a new survey.

Not to make anything worse with finals week coming up, but if you're studying a STEM major, the odds of you failing an exam are way higher than if you're doing a humanities major.

Those studying majors Liberal Arts, English and Political Science would appear to have it easier, as around 25 percent of them have failed a final at some point during their degrees. STEM students are under far more pressure – Civil Engineering majors, for instance, have failed exams before at a rate over 75 percent.

See where your major ranks below – these stats come from over 3000 students from across America who replied to a Tab survey and self-reported whether they had failed a final before.
