Heyyy, I think some of you might have come across many of my posts and I always look confused in those.

But I really need all the help that I can get.

Myquals: msc mathematics

22 yr old and I am really lost. I did msc in mathematics but I realised that I don't really wanna go for PhD and do Bed. And waste my time on government vacancies. I will have to do it if there is no other option.

Everytime I ask for advice in other career paths. People either mention data science, actuary and all other stuffs.

But I really need help in understanding such. I have been researching a lot about it. Anything like actuary really requires u to dedicate so much time in it like clearing those 7 paper and all. People who have been trying right after their 12th are also confused on it. So there is no option for me.

If anyone comes across this post and have any idea of a field I can jump to, like data science. Can u please please guide me on how to go about it. I am willing to dedicate two more years into it. Upskill myself and even get a degree if needed. But please tell me a realistic position for an average student and how to go about it. Not unrealistic scenarios plz

​

My main question is

How realistic is it to get into ISI with a 10-11 month preparation and if any of you got into the institute coming from a not so great college and with not so great basics at start. How did u prepare and what resources would I need to buy and study ?

I am from a pure mathematics background. But I would say that I don't have the mathematical maturity that most people are saying is needed for clearing the entrance.

I am currently working part time as a teacher and deciding to either get a degree in Bed. To pursue education in general or actually follow what I like and go for stats.

So I would appreciate a very realistic answer. No matter how harsh it is.

Hey I am an msc maths graduate.

Are there no real jobs for this degree. Idk why I even did this degree but the only options that open up seems to be studying even more and do phd.

Or just go do bachelor in education And get into education field and teach in schools. Which is extremely underpaid and not a good place at all. What's up with it?

Is there no use of this degree

myquals : msc maths graduate from some tier 3 college.

Anyways I was really stupid as a kid and couldn't really decide on what job to do and what careeee path to choose.

Well, no one really suggested much. So I ended up doing bsc and msc from maths from my college in the same city as I couldn't figure out what I really want to prepare for and just wanted to have one thing as a backup. Now I know that I don't want to research and try for PhD.

The only clear option for me seems to be doing Bed. And then trying to find jobs in school. But I am already 22 and i can't keep teaching part-time while earning pennies as I complete yet another course that doesn't guarantee a job.

Plus I don't even like teaching to dedicate more years into that.

What are the other options that I can take that are not teaching? Are there even any in India ? I am willing to put one more year and dedicate myself completely if there are any actual proper starting jobs that opens up with my qualification
