大家還是多多修硬課然後專心考試吧。根據英國精算學會的調查，
修課抵免似乎不受雇主歡迎。

Sources of Applicants
Most trainees come from a small range of well regarded universities
such as Oxford, Cambridge, Warwick and LSE. Heriot Watt and City
graduates with an Actuarial Science (AS) degrees are common
but not
universally well regarded (see below). Applicants tend to use the
Profession's website and Inside Careers as sources of information.
Most recruiters prefer a wide range of subject disciplines but most
apply with AS, Maths or MORSE (Mathematics, Operational Research,
Statistics and Economics: Warwick) with fewer from Statistics,
Economics, Physics or Engineering. Some
prefer a non-AS background.
Exemptions
None of those interviewed liked applicants to have too many exemptions
with the
8 core technical subjects being the most to be acceptable.
Some
actively prefer a non-AS background because of the need for
in-office experience and an expectation by such candidates that they
should have an advantage over other, non-AS candidates as a matter of
right. Their expectations may be too high and there was a reported
perception that they do
not qualify more quickly.
