Actuarial vs Econmics

Hey Guys!

Need help from you guys regarding a decision I have to make. Which one would you choose if you were in my place:

City for Actuarial Science
or
Bristol for Economics

The requirements are the same so it's become difficult for me to make a decision.

Have a look at uni-stats; they have starting salaries, a break down of employment prospects, assessment type etc :smile:

To what extent are you set on becoming an actuary after uni? If you are pretty much certain about becoming an actuary I'd do actuarial science, if not id do economics.

I actually want to switch after my first year to economics at LSE or somewhere with a similar prestige. My priority is to be in London so I am leaning towards city's actuarial course.
