9 Year Old Microsoft Pro

Now this is just insane. A Microsoft Certified Professional at the age of 9? I don’t even think I could read at that age! :)

Arfa Karim of Multan has officially become the youngest MCP in Pakistan, and one of the youngest in the world. Karim, now 10, met with Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates last week–an experience she later described as second only to visiting Disneyland. To attain the credential–at any age–a person has to display technical proficiency in areas such as .Net, Visual Studio 6.0 and Windows Server 2003.

Being proficient at the age of 9 just means you are a certifiable genius. I doubt I could pass those exams at the ripe old age of 23.
