I'm a rising junior at UC Berkeley. Applied Mathematics Major.
Now it's time for me to choose an applied area.
I'm considering economics and actuarial science.
Some of my senior friends (majoring in economics) got offers from investment banks, for example, JPMorgan. The salary is quite high as an investment banking analyst.
According to PayScale, investment banking analysts seem to have higher salaries than actuaries do. esp during the first year.
Which one actually earns more?
Which one should I choose?
Thank you in advance.
