QUOTE(Searingmage @ Aug 6 2011, 03:49 PM) Dear Searingmage, on what basis would you say that?I notice you use * should *... Any heads up for me? Thanks! Added on August 6, 2011, 9:31 pmHey, i got a question.. Can someone describe to me the path of an actuary, i dun mean the general path, i mean for the exams.. like which year and what requirement for each exam... Like 2nd year in your actuary degree only can take what paper, or maybe you need working experience to take which paper... Would appreciate the info.. Assuming you are in UK Btw.

QUOTE(LightningFist @ Aug 7 2011, 02:47 PM) Did you get a full scholarship with 3 years tuition + accommodation? Hmm as i saw southampton got 8 exemptions while lse and warwick has 7 only...Southampton is good and reputable enough, I suppose. My teacher went to Southampton (grad school) before getting a PhD from UPenn. Competition in the UK would be LSE and Warwick. |
