World’s Youngest MCP is 8 Years Old
My niece became a Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP) in the final year of her high school and just before she started college……I thought that was impressive (well, compared to me anyway). Then I read about the 9-year old Pakistani girl that passed her MCP exam at half her age. Her story appeared in the Micronews. Now an 8-year old girl from India has become the youngest MCP ever. What I want to know is what’s next. Who’s going to break her record? A 5 year old? Before you know we will have 7 year old surgeons. OK, that’s not a joke. That’s something that has already happened (see list of childhood prodigies below).
According to news stories, M. Lavinashree passed her exam with flying colors. The kid has a photographic memory so apparently she didn’t have much trouble passing her exam. Now she is going for her MCSE.
Her accomplishments are posted on this Web site. There are lots of stories out there about her in the blogs, local media and magazines.
