Toughest: Physics section of JEE Main-2014 can be considered as the most difficult among all the sections. Most of the questions in this section were  above averagae level and very ambiguous. 3 or 4 questions in the section were very tedious and require lengthy calculations. Moreover, more than one concept was required in many questions to solve them.

Equal weightage to 10th & 12th: The question in physics section of JEE Main-2014 require strong fundamentals. Equal weightage was given to the board syllabus of class 11th & class 12th.
