I belong to a special science class for 4 years. Based on my experiences, the only problem I encounterd is the expectations of the teachers and the lower sections. Some even consider us as geniuses which is a wrong impression. Our subjects are similar to them except that we have Advanced Chemistry, Research and Earth Science. Science is not a difficult subject although the lessons need a lot of understanding and discovery plus the observations and analysis of data.

A major problem that some students have in science subjects is a sub par knowledge in math. Much of high school science is based off math. Without the basics, it's like building a house without a hammer.

Many beginning science students merely memorize knowledge, instead of understanding it and incorporating it into the pursue of more knowledge. Memorization is destructive; in the short run, it may help you pass a test, but as you progress you will need these base foundation knowledge, or science will just get harder for them, leading to more memorization.
