Bro ๐Ÿ’€ u literally just picked 2 of the most difficult degrees and you want to double them. Ngl try it out, if u can handle the coursework good for you, otherwise drop it. Many people take compsci and actu but end up dropping compsci as it gets too much, and Law is similar in difficulty.

Oh many people that pick it Iโ€™m pretty sure want to break into finance like IB or something, So by doing such hard degrees and actually completing them they show the employers that they are capable and what not. Atleast thatโ€™s what I got told.

dont do it but nah coursework wont be too much (obviously depending on your affinity for the subs), youll still be taking the regular number of units just split between those two courses so u wont have like free arts subs.

they probably just end up in law in some normal commercial part. i guess it could be advantageous for insurance law which is an absolute money churner. generally the second degree doesnt matter too much for law and the focus should be on keeping law wam up (which doing actuarial instead of say commerce courses may detract from)

with regards to outside of law, actuarial may open up opportunities in more stem-y areas of finance etc.
