    Actuarial External Exams

    It would be some hassle to do some from IoA and some from SoA. It shouldn't be too difficult for someone as hard working and focused as you :D, I've heard about people who passed SOA part 1 and part 2 in two years. ... and another tihing.. you would have to go out of Australia to do the SOA...

    compulsory 1st yr science subjects

    COMP1091 is a science subject.. but I don't recommend it. Especially if you plan to do a few 2nd yr/3rd yr computing courses... It's a bit technical for someone who doesn't like programming and too easy for someone who did C/pascal before. COMP1081 is a science subject but it's almost just a...

    Prove infinity+1=infinity
