For a career, you need certain skills. There are six main
areas where mathematics is needed and a bunch of sub areas... ignoring math for maths sake or
teaching. Most of these people are highly respected and often are paid
highly.
1) Computer games, simulations, military simulators, etc. The level of math varies but usually requires at least two semesters of Calc, Linear Algebra, and some exposure to Vector Calc. I work in this area.
2) Economics, business, predictive economics, insurance. This usually finishes Calc and then goes into probability, statistics, and actuary (insurance).
3) Research, materials research, chemistry, heat transfer, nuclear plant building, solar cell creation. Most of these delve into a unique blend of statistics and differential equations.
4) Engineering, bridge building, aircraft design, process engineering, industrial design. This is almost entirely Calculus and applied physics.
5) Biological research, genetics, protein analysis, pharmaceutical research. This is applied chemistry, biological sciences, and computer simulations mixed with Abstract Algebra (protein folding), Calculus, and various fluid sciences (fluids is a very hard part of physics/maths).
6) Applied physics, nuclear research, grand unification, particle/string theorists. These are all post-graduate people and you had better study a lot of physics and have known Calculus for 20 years. Most of these people have advanced physics degrees and at least a masters in maths. This is DiffEQ, Lie Algebra, Symmetry, Geometry, and much much more.
