The Athletic Actuary
By Nate Worrell
Heart pounding, adrenaline pumping, dripping in sweat, working as hard as possible, trying to beat the clock...
- The above description could be for an athlete or an actuarial student taking exams. The parallels are numerous. As a collegiate athlete I ate, slept and breathed basketball. My schedule was built around gym time. When exam season comes around, study time becomes the gym. I find that the keys to success as a basketball player are directly applicable as an actuary and exam taker.
