Dr he recommends students get 42+ in spesh to do actuarial studies so you should be fine

Is that 42 raw or scaled...?
haha don't worry too much about what score you get exactly in spesh lol, the maths in actuarial studies is fairly different from what you'd have learnt in spesh ;)
I'd assume he means raw.. otherwise that's a 30 RAW (according to this year) which isn't that hard to get.

Nah Dr. He used that as a recommendation benchmark. Because if you do well in Spesh, it mainly means you are naturally good at maths or work super duper hard or a bit of both which is perfect for an actuarial student.
