A fourth standard girl from rural Tamil Nadu has become the youngest to qualify the Microsoft certified professional examination. The Microsoft exam, usually taken by techies for better job prospects, measures problem-solving skills and Lavinashree (9) passed it with flying colors. By achieving this feat, she broke the record held by Arfa Karim, a ten-year-old Pakistani girl. Yay! That is one up on you Pakies!
NDTV: 9 Year old TN girl cracks Microsoft Exam
Humor aside, does this mean the girl is exceptionally talented to be a professional right away or should Microsoft revise their exams?
I think it tends to settle the question of paper certification vs. experience. Not to belittle her achievement in any way, though.
