I currently work in short term, mainly focused on motor insurance. And that's pretty much the only actuarial experience I have. However, I'm fairly certain this is not what I want to be doing in the future. I didn't nearly like CT6 as much as CT5 for instance and I don't seem to enjoy too much of the work I currently have to do.
So, while it may appear logical for me to do ST7 and ST8 (General Insurance pricing and reserving), I really don't want to.
Would it be a serious mistake for me to attempt ST2 and maybe ST5 as well as ST1 or ST9 perhaps? I mean, given that my exposure in short term is mostly limited to motor insurance could it not be said that I'm not really losing out on that much relevant experience to help with understanding an ST (7 or 8).
Are the chances of passing SA2 even less then?
I've gotten the impression that this might be a big mistake, but at the same token I don't want to carry on working in an area that I don't enjoy? Please help! Thanks
