    Hello,
    Arts, Humanity and Commerce are very different branches as Science. Yes, it is difficult to get into Science and Engineering if one doesn't have a pre base. There are lot of examples of people switching from science to arts but not vice versa. This is because the complexity cannot be understood by self.
    A person should be sure of what to do while choosing streams. The longer the correct career clicks, the more difficult it is.
    Long story short, yes, one can say so that it is difficult to start career in Science when there is no proper background.

    No, let me tell you that everything we do can be done by a science student also. It can be harder to study theoretical physics than Greek art. Not impossible, but maybe harder. The advantage for science students is they can end up in any major they like while humanities students have fewer options.
    If you go through the humanities path, you can end up in social sciences and business administration (always when you take mathematics and statistics courses) and obviously, the humanities field. There are careers in psychology, literature, philosophy, sociology, law, etc. For all of these, the best option is to go to a graduate school.
