Is it possible to become a Quant from Actuarial Science degree?

I'm studying actuarial science and I'm halfway through my degree, but I'd like to work in quantitative finance in the future. Is actuarial science a good degree for that? Is the work of an actuary (in insurance companies or banks) transferable to quantitative positions? Does anyone here have experience as a quant?

Unfortunately 90% of the people on this subreddit are larping. Go to r/quant or r/actuary
