Hi
Firstly i would like to say hi and introduce myself a bit.
I have recently finished my part time (evening study) BSc in Maths & Stats and have been thinking about becoming an actuary for quite some time. the problem is, that this will be a career change and I am a mature student (I'm 32
). I have been working in (boring) Admin (including a bit of Accounting) for 5 years now. Are there any career changers out there? do you think that it is too late to start with the exams? I have read that in order to get a job in an actuarial company it helps if I did a couple of exams myself to show commitment. Do you think that this would be a good idea? My alternative was going into Accounting and starting an Accountancy qualification. do you think that this would be "easier"?
I would really appreciate any thoughts or ideas. This is a great forum by the way!
