O.P. 9 year old girl gets certified by Microsoft.
quote:
originally by Seattle post-intelligencer.
Arfa, a promising software programmer from Faisalabad, Pakistan, is believed to be the youngest Microsoft Certified Professional in the world. The designation, given to outside experts who prove their ability to work with Microsoft technologies, has also been achieved by some teenagers. But it's far more common among adults seeking to advance their computer careers.

I really am amazed by this, she's so young :o

Wow o_0
How is that possible?! She doesn't look like someone who would be working for microsoft :P And being a girl is unusual. (75% men working at microsoft)

Because people that age don't have enough knowledge :\

I want to see her programs too.
