Wonder children are nothing new. They are known to pop up from unexplained places and in the most unique of fields on a regular basis. But that does not mean they cease to amaze us. On the contrary, such stories inspire and leave us in awe of the genius and talent of these exceptional kids.??
Well, one 7-year-old from Balangir, Odisha can be added to that elite list. This boy has cleared the Microsoft Technology Associate Examination, as per a report in The New Indian Express. It is a globally recognised certification for those who want to embark on a career in technology.?
For an adult to achieve it is a big deal, so a kid doing it is all the more special.
Meet Venkat Raman Patnaik. The 7-year-old is a Class III student. He is home-schooled from Whitehar Jr. This boy cleared the MTA exam for introduction to programming in Java, Javascript, Python, HTML, CSS and database administration fundamentals.?
“Venkat joined classes at WhiteHat Jr in March 19 and attended around 160 classes. He picked up the essence of coding from the day one. His achievement is rare indeed,” said Jatinder Kaur who is Venkat's teacher.?
A boy genius indeed. The kid looks destined for great things. Do not be surprised if he makes a name for himself on the world stage in the years to come. There is some time to go, but he is on the right track.
