Since I am a Maths graduation from one of the prestigious Institutions of India, I think I am eligible to write the answer. Throughout the answer, I am not discouraging you, but telling you some harsh reality of math-graduation. To be very honest, if you love mathematics just because of calculative or numerical approach, I should warn you, not to take mathematics as your major paper. B.Sc. Hons (or B Math) in Mathematics is entirely different and also more difficult (for majority) in comparison with 10+2 mathematics. You are going to be introduced to pure mathematics (Real Analysis, Functional Analysis, Topology, Metric space etc.), which is, to be very honest, exceptionally hard for most of the students. And above all, don't pursue mathematics if you don't love it, because except from academic or research line, mathematics does not have that much exposure in career approaches since the scope is too small in comparison with other subjects.
