Thank you all for replying. Another question i have is if i am to become a lecturer, would they prefer someone who has a BS in statistics or pure mathematics? Cause i noticed most of the lecturers in my school have a Bs in mathematics.

Thx fr replying. =) i do plan to minor in comp science. Is it true dat stats is less rigorous than pure maths?

Thanks for replying chiro. Btw, can a pure mathematician work in industry? or r they restricted to only academia?

First of all, thanks fr replying. XD I cnt agree more dat statisticians hv a wider range of employment opportunities. However, what i'd really want is a career as a lecturer.And i do believe dat whether i cn be awesome or not as a pure mathematician or statistician depends on my interest as...

Lol seriously? Cause i knw many ppl who type "dat" instead of "that" . And it's 2012. =)

Should i choose pure mathematics or statistics as a major for my degree? I intend to do my masters n PhD to become a lecturer. which is d better path if i want to be an academician? i also heard dat pure maths esp math proof is vry rigorous but I'm nt sure if i'll like stats.. any advice?
