If you do it right, neither major will be easy. Electrical Engineering will deal more with applications, where Physics will emphasize research. Why not get a dual degree?

I would say Physics. A lot of Electrical Engineering is based off of Physics II like circuits for example. Plus physics doesn't get really hard until the advance courses. Engineering encompasses more math classes (through Calculus 3), then usually some type of engineering math, physics 1&2, etc.

Neither. There is also a lot of overlap between these majors in the undergraduate curriculum, and just in general. Engineering is all about applying science to get useful results. For Electrical Engineering, the sciences applied are predominantly those of Physics.

Neither is easy. If you are asking which one is easier, the answer is neither I suspect. Both require lots of math.

Forget about "easy" and do what you LIKE. If it were easy, there wouldn't be any admissions standards, and everybody would have a degree.
