    What is a good double degree for Actuarial Studies?

    I would probably do comm-eco or comm-sci(math). Investment bankers take people from all disciplines so it doesn't really matter what you do as long as you go really really well in it. So i would choose whatever you think you can get higher marks in. Also rather than trying to completely plan out...

    Actuarial Studies at UNSW and MQ

    Clearly the views of someone doing actuarial at UNSW. The reason many people go to mac uni for actuarial is because it was the first program in australia to offer actuarial studies. What this means is most of the current working actuaries graduated from mac uni and most of the lecturers teaching...

    B Commerce - MAJORS?

    I'm doing actuarial and appfin @ macquarie so maybe i can help to answer some of the questions. Honestly even if you don't go as great in maths as you thought you would it's worth giving actuarial a try. At uni it's a different playing field, like i know heaps of people with lower uais (just...

    Are people in the northern and eastern suburbs big time snobs?

    Examples of the wording of the cards in the ‘Centelink Benefits’ Pile: • You discover you are 1/512th Aboriginal. Collect $50 from each player. • You made it out of MT Druitt without being rolled nor impregnated. Consider yourself lucky. • You have placed second last in a beauty pageant. Pay...

    Actuarial (double or single)?

    most people do a double and get part II accredited as well. Then it takes another 2 years + you have to do an ethics course and join this mentor program thing. The fastest u could become FIAA would be 6 years from when you start uni but considering u need credits for tons of courses and the pass...

    Coop Scholarship

    This is kind of irrelevant to the topic of unsw actuarial but i'll respond anyways :D I do actuarial at macquarie and i know that 33% of people getting HD (average i assume) is a bit of an exaggeration. There is a top class for one subject and everyone in it has a perfect gpa ( distinction or...
