The following could be the probable reasons:
a) Your are using correlated queries - Correlated
queries always re-evaluate the sub-query for each row
processed.
b) You have an IN clause - try using EXISTS clause,
since it IN clause doesn't utilize the index when your
subquery is another SELECT statement.
