Everyone trusts a hacker, although that's probably not what you're looking for

Storm it depends what you want to get into. the MCSD is for Web Based Applications and Databases, SQL Server 2k, SQL ANSI, XML Web Services, you also need to know if you want to do the newer exams in vb.net or C#.net. Not sure of all the Exams but i can look them up for you if you want.

Grok, what certifications should I get?

Masters degree from MIT.

Isn't that the hardest school in the country to get in to? I heard it's harder than Harvard.

I do take courses there and I have a few "inside connections."

It's just my opinion based on what I know about you, which includes knowing the type of opportunities available to you, your ability, and so on. Forget 'certifications', they're for guys like me who don't have a college degree.

Harvard's overrated. Princeton, I believe, is the hardest school to get into; atleast they are the most selective.

I would still much rather go to MIT.

Undergraduate career doesn't really matter that much. Graduate career does. That's the opinion I have formed.

I am more interested in a military/CIA/NSA type of career, so a degree from MIT would be ideal in my situation.

Gremlin · October 23, 2003, 08:20 PM

Most people don't get into the CIA/NSA unless ure either in the Military, or State Police. The only other people they have are hackers. And you got to be one good Hacker.

Tuberload · October 23, 2003, 08:31 PM

I'm going into the marines, so I already have it planned, but this is way off topic.

If you're a very good mathematician, you have excellent chances to get into the NSA. They employ more mathematicians than any other organization in the (USA? World?).

Grok · October 24, 2003, 08:52 AM

It has been said that the NSA employs over 90% of the world's cryptoanalysts.

Gremlin · October 24, 2003, 02:02 PM

The building the math crypt people are in is like a mile down the street from the NSA Building. We had to be like check before we go into the buildings. Plus when we drive by and your near the building they listen to everything. So there for they employee more Specialty people then they do Math People. Not that being good at math doesn't help cause it does.

I'm not really the one to point out spelling mistakes or grammer errors, i just don't like reading posts 2 or 3 times over, just to get the grasp of what your trying to say. So, do yourself a favour, either type out your posts in MS Word or have a better eye for this type of thing.

It also tends to make yourself sound or seem smarter and more professional.
