Actuarial Science

What are the requirements? Grade requirements? Unis' in the states?

Hi,

There are no grade requirements as such. Just do your best in high school.
Though, you need to have Economics and Math at A-level (or equivalent level). That's the most basic and important requirement to major in Actuarial Sciences.
Almost all the good universities in the States have Actuarial Sciences as a separate major.

All the best.

What I meant to say was that there is no specific criterion for a guaranteed admission.
Language efficiency is an important factor, too.

If you do well in high school, you will increase your chances of getting into good colleges. That's all.

You're welcome.

Accounting will help in actuarial sciences. I'd advise you to take Accounting too. My friends who study actuarial sciences, in general, find it easier to cope with Economics than with Accounting. Though it's easy, you need the practice.

Business Studies is really unnecessary if you have Economics and Accounting. You can do something else instead.
