I'm a junior college student (math major) who goes to a shitty state school. My GPA is a 3.225 currently. The reason I go to this school and why my GPA is poor is because I've never cared about school but that changed this last semester. I'm coming off a 4.0 semester and hope to graduate with around a 3.5.
I am interested in working as an actuary but feel like given my school and grades, I will not have the greatest selection choices for an entry level position. I planned to end my formal education after I get my BS but recently I have thought that I could go to graduate school.
Finally, to my inquiry. I was wondering opinions on my chances of getting into a good graduate school for mathematics and if the impact of a graduate education on an actuarial career (or even a more math related career) would be significant enough to take on graduate school debt.
