What can you do with a Maths degree?

There are the obvious things that specifically require analytically-minded people, but you'll also pick up many transferable skills (this will open the door to a multitude of other professions ).

And maths/physics degrees are widely considered to be the most difficult, which means that they're very well respected

There are quite a lot. Is there a particular field you're interested in? Or something you know for sure you want to stay away from?

thanks for that, looks like a very insightful website

No Problem. If it helps, I'm going on to do a PhD/Masters (all in one go, see http://www.bristol.ac.uk/cdt-communications/) in Communication Science. I'm in my final year, so I don't know exactly what people have gone on to do after a maths degree, but my friends have gone to places such as TSB (I saw the presentation TSB gave for this, it was basically looking at how you decide whether to give someone credit/mortgages ect based on their credit score) and HEFCE (the higher education funding council for england). There are lots of interesting applications of mathematics besides just being a maths teacher/going into academia, although these are certainly options. If you did decide to become a teacher, they're highly in demand, and the government incentivises graduates (dependent on grades I think) to go onto teacher training courses, to try and get new good quality teachers.

I'm interested in finance e.g. derivs trading, Algo trading, hedge fund firm etc etc but im not fully decided and am also looking at engineering.

Maths is my strength so i would do something that is maths heavy

Can someone gimme a full range of careers you can do with a maths degree?

thanks
