hard class

Challenging academic subject

A hard class is a course that demands significant effort, either because the material is inherently difficult or because the instructor grades rigorously.

Students warn each other about hard classes when planning schedules: Organic chemistry is a hard class—don't take it with a full course load.

The phrase can also describe any challenging group session: That yoga session was a hard class.
