What is a scope of commerce?

I am currently a first year Bachelor's of Commerce honors student in DU. I want to pursue a career in actuarial science. What is the scope and what are the necessary steps to be taken in order to achieve the same?

• Answer:

  It is a very good option if you are very good in maths. I would suggest you join a good coaching class. I have no idea which are good and bad, so better consult with Maths professors or students doing maths hons. 3 rd years are better! According to some of my professors, only 2 percent students enrolled become an actuary in India. So now you know, how hard you need to work. Since you are first year, I can see you are very serious about it. That's a good sign. I suggest you go through the sites I mention here and also do your research!  http://indianactuary.com/2010/01/tips-for-passing-actuarial-examinations.html http://www.bestindiaedu.com/career-courses/actuaries.html This one gives all your answers!
