    I don't do actuarial maths, but my friends do! S They always have a lot of work and after 1st year the course can get a bit overwhelming (obviously not, if you put in a lot of work and are good at maths)

    The common entry course is the exact same as the normal actuarial maths for the first two years, then after that, you have a choice whether you would like to continue doing it, or do some other maths related course, such as financial maths.

    Also, actuaries have a 0% unemployment rate! Work hard and it'll be sure to pay off in the end.
