hi everyone. i just finished my a levels, waiting for my results that's gonna be released at the end of january next year.

i have a strong interest in mathematics, i always get A for math and i took further math as one of my subjects in a levels but haha i never really did very well in that. but i found the exam ok. just have to wait for january to see.

anyway, my best subjects are chemistry and math. i obviously have more passion in math than chemistry but i love chemistry as well. i've been looking up actuarial science. it really seems to be very interesting. the thing getting my down is that i have to study at least 8 years till i actually become a professional. i have to work and study and i dont think i can keep up. if i only have my degree, what's the benefit of it?

and about pharmacy, well, i don't really like bio, and learning about DNA and stuff. well, not at first. i tend to slowly enjoy learning my subjects. it only has very little math in it which i think i'm okay about. i like the idea of working for an industrial company tho. not stuck in the office thinking about numbers for the rest of my life. plus, it's so much faster to become a professional when i take up pharmacy.

my main worry is: which job is more interesting, pharmacy or actuarial science?
