I'm sure it is. For pure, abstract brain-power, mathematicians stand alone. I can't do it, but I do admire it.
The only part of any of the hard sciences I ever had any problem with was the mathematics. That includes organic chemisty and a graduate-level course in molecular genetics(both of which I took as electives, just for giggles).
