Lunatics, all of you. The correct answer is:

  • Science: Blue
  • English: Green
  • Math: Yellow
  • History: Red

In reverse order of the memorability of historical names, of course.

In college for me it was:

  • Gray - physics
  • Blue - chemistry
  • Black - biology
  • Green or orange - math
  • Red - French

Your link directly contradicts what you said?

If colours were simply a naming scheme for wavelengths then pink is not one

However, colours are not simply names for wavelengths – colours merely label our perception of light, once it has passed through our eyes.

Science is Yellow.

Maths is red, green is biology

For me, green was chemistry, red was biology, purple was physics, and blue was math. Orange would probably be Spanish, and pink or any other colors would be left over for English, social studies, etc.

what foolish regionalism are you universalizing now

Apparently the answer's green, I mean I would have gone with blue (star trek science officers, for one thing) but whatever, why would it matter except in an unnecessarily strict conformist-centric education system... is this American bullshit I'm smelling?

edit: ooh this is accumulating downvotes fast, I've hit a nerve i see, let me help..
