Default 9 year old MCP

A nine year-old girl in India named M. Lavinashree has passed the Microsoft Certified Professional Exam, becoming the youngest person to ever pull it off (smashing the record previously held by a 10 year-old Pakistani girl). The youngster has a long history of making records in her short life -- including reciting all 1,300 couplets of a 2,000 year-old Tamil epic at the age of three -- and now she's now cramming for the Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer Exam. We'll be honest, this really takes the zing out of our biggest accomplishment at the age of nine: figuring out where in the world Carmen Sandiego was. Hit the read link for a video.

MCP is stupid easy. I remember smoking some greens before taking the exam. Not to mention in order to obtain your MCSE or MCSA you have to pass all 7 tests.
If you pass one of the exams your MCP certified.


Shes a genius if she passes the CCIE or CCDE exam.
