Pranav Kalyan, a 12 year old Boy of Indian Origin led the world to Surprises when he became World’s Youngest Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist on January 9 this year.
More surprisingly he is merely a Class 4 Student yet he cracked the Exam based on ASP.NET Framework 3.5, which many Graduates even find difficult to crack. Microsoft’s certification is one of the hardest technical tests to crack. Even many tech wizards find it very hard to clear the test.
“I spent at least 8 Hours a day for last 18 months to prepare for the MCTS exams.”, said Pranav in an Interview.
His father Kalyan Kumar hails from Madurai, Tamil Nadu. He is now settled in California and currently works at the Bank of America, Los Angeles.
Elated by the Success of his Son, Mr. Kumar says “”As a toddler, Pranav was more fascinated by computers than toys. He started writing small software programs at the age of six. He is capable of solving problems in differential calculus and integral calculus. His efficiency in mathematics helped him write programs”.
