<p>Are you an URM, Mr. Tubbz?</p>
<p>Congrats mr. tubbz see you this summer =]</p>
<p>Yep, I’m black</p>
<p>I wonder if I can get the date switched too… wait that means I’d be going to a diff SBI</p>
<p>I was going to go to Howard’s Summer Actuarial Program (haven’t been officially accepted but the director said I would be basically in once I applied) from June 24-July 14
LEAD@Illinois = July 8 - July 28</p>
<p>I am not one to ask but my moms would def want me to ask</p>
<p>BTW</p>
<p>I forgot to ask everybody</p>
<p>list your top 3 SBI’s along with the one you got into
or your top4/5 if you can remember </p>
<p>mine:</p>
<p>1) Stanford
2) Duke
3) <em>Illinois</em> (I was debating on whether to put UPENN here over Illinois)
4) UPENN
5) Minnesota</p>
<ol>
<li>Georgetown </li>
<li> Penn - YES!
3-5 were all the rest of the programs that were in July since I don’t get out of school until June 20th and will be at the California Youth Think Tank the last week of June</li>
</ol>
<p>ActuarialDJ if you don’t mind me asking what exactly is an actuary. I mean i know they like evaluate the probability of something happening and do stuff with insurance companies. But what else do they do?</p>
<p>you dont get out till june 20th? we get out may 23rd i think and i get out earlier cuz i dont have exams for my AP’s</p>
<p>Stockton Unified School District is stupid therefore we get out on June 20 this year</p>
<p>no here is what is really messed up
everywhere I know</p>
<p>ppl either start in Sept and get out in June
or start in Aug and get out in May</p>
<p>Charlotte-Mecklenburg School District starts in August and gets out in June
and it was even worse my freshmen year (my first year in Charlotte) when we started August 16th and got out like on June 7th </p>
<h2>do ppl realize that there is only one full month where we don’t go to school</h2>
<p>oh an actuary
this site should do the profession more justice that I can in terms of explaining what they do and who they are
<a href=“http://www.beanactuary.com%5B/url%5D”>www.beanactuary.com</a></p>
<p>but overall, we (I speak as if I am one already), evaluate risks and put a monetary value on it–forecasting </p>
<p>and the techniques used can be applied to so many different areas</p>
<p>all kinds of insurance–actuaries = the backbone of insurance
financial investing
recidivism (I just learned about this) with respect to sentencing and all that
pension/retirement</p>
<p>I could tell you more about it and me, but this post is already pretty long</p>
<p>how did you get interested in it? Who do you know that is one? This is my first time hearing about it.</p>
<p>Upenn
Dartmouth** excited bcuz im actually considering it for college
Cornell

<p>hey,
well i was bored and i created a Dartmouth LEAD facebook group…come join and we can talk about the kick a** summer we’re going to have…</p>
<p>my mom is like freaking out becuase she never heard about LEAD in her life- what can I tell her to let her know that LEAD is a great oppurtunity.</p>
<p>random i know but- being accepted into LEAD has caused me to have all of this joy bubbling up inside of me. lol I’ve been on this board all day just to talk about this program and to people who are going. its craziness…my parents have no idea how big this is but they’re overjoyed b/c im so enthusiastic… i dont think i can handle waiting 3 more months</p>
