At Age 9, Girl in Pakistan Is a Microsoft Certified Professional
The Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP) credential is for technology professionals who have the skills to successfully implement a Microsoft product or technology as part of a business solution. At just 9 years old, Arfa Karim Randhawa , of Faisalabad, Pakistan, is one of the youngest MCPs in the world. She recently received her credentials from Emre Berkin, chairman of Microsoft's Europe, Middle East and Africa region, and Jawwad Rehman, Microsoft's country manager for Pakistan. Via e-mail, Randhawa recently discussed how the child of an agricultural family came to achieve this status and what it means to her and her family.

I think it is quite crazy for a 9 year old girl to have a cert like that. Leads me to think if that certificate is worth anything or not...I am in the market for the Sun Programmer exam meself on Java. That will be a tough nut to crack.
