I checked and found out that qualified actuarian in malaysia is actually less than 80. Is this course very very very hard to study and is the job opportunity wide? Those studying this or have informations on this, welcome to drop your comments.

The UTAR person jz called me this morning, asking me whether I'm going, and ask me to bank in the money before 30th of may. Hahaha, i think UTAR's out for me, too high expenses, anyway, i can still be an actuary rite? as long as i have a degree, then i can proceed to take the professional paper. I heard so. IS this true?
