Awesome! I didn't know what an Actuary was and I am thankful to Michael Jordan, our teacher, for taking the time to explain what this is. What an exciting career. I wish everyone the best of luck and learn all you can from Michael. He's the best.

Great insight into what it takes to become an Actuary. There's much more involved than I expected. This helped me decide that it's not exactly the right fit for me, but if I were much younger, I'd be encouraged to take the challenge.

Gave me a very detailed overview of the Actuarial profession and I appreciate that. After listening, I've decided not to pursue becoming an Actuary.

I really love the genuine advice received from the video course. One in particular is the video on getting your first job, regarding the things to be mindful about when looking for a company to join. ✨

Great course. I just graduated with a Bachelors in Business Administration and my concentration was Management Information Systems. After watching this course and taking notes I have realized that I very much would like to become an actuary!
