Chemical Engineering -v- Acturial Science

I am currently studying Math, Physics, Biology ICT at AS level.
My preferred subject is Maths without a doubt, so i've been researching careers in that field. So far, degrees that interest me are Chemical Engineering and Acturial science.
Does anyone have any experience with these courses that would be able to offer me an advice?
There's no denying that I am motivated my money and having a good job, but I DO NOT want to hate the rest of my working life so job satisfaction is a major factor - I've heard Actuary can be very very pressurized?
An adice would be greatly appreciated!
They're quite different subjects, however for becoming and Actuary I'd guess the best route is either as a school leaver or a graduate with any kind of degree. So if it was out of those two subjects I'd say to ChemE as it'll keep both career options open.

Chemical Engineering has a much larger scope for banter :smile:
