Even more probably they'll say Сопромат.
As in "Сопромат для чайников".
That's the harshest course most people have to take at technical university in Russia.

What exactly does a сопромат course entail?

сопромат means strength/resistance of materials (architecture terminology)

not only architecture - any tech student takes it.

That's http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_of_materials as far as I understand.

Nobody mentioned it & this is not evident: сопромат stands for СОПРОтивление МАТериалов.

Well, in your opinion, which course is hardest?

There is another one, Начертательная геометрия, but that's hard at hand job not at understanding. That's what I say historically, I had neither.

I know - this course is usually called the harderst.

The harderst is obviously the course where the lecturer doesn't know his job.

Well, let's say "usually the hardest".

Otherwise: You're right, of course.
