Honours
gollark: I'm pretty sure the range of possibly-maths-involving careers is very wide, and it'd help you with physics and similar subjects.
gollark: Thus, study things you like now.
gollark: It's not as if you have to preplan your entire life to pick a schooling option.
gollark: What gets counted as a separate career is kind of arbitrary.
gollark: No, 12000 in general. I assume you could get 12000 maths ones if you slice them up finely enough though.
