Despite being talented in mathematics, the author hesitated to pursue the Actuarial Examination due to a background in Arts, fearing that only Science graduates would succeed. The article discusses the establishment of the Institute of Actuaries in London in 1848 and the creation of the Actuarial Society of India (ASI) in 1944, which became a member of the International Actuarial Society Association in 1979. It emphasizes the significance of becoming an Actuarial Scientist, as it is highly regarded in the job market, particularly in the insurance sector, where actuaries assess risks and design financial products. Currently, the demand for actuaries extends to various fields, including project management and healthcare. The author concludes by advising candidates to obtain a university degree alongside their actuarial studies for better career prospects.
