Fast Track to a CS Degree? 1143
kyrex asks: "it's been 5
years since I've been working in the tech industry and I've make
great progress. My salary has grown by an annual rate of about 50%
and I'm currently working as a consultant in a leading consulting
firm. But not having received any formal education in Computer
Science, and therefore having no degree will be a problem for
further progress. I've considered many options but they all take
time: at least 3 years. I've been programming since I was 12
(I'm currently 24) and have read hundreds of CS books. I think that I
can easily complete a CS degree in 1 year. I want to know if there
are universities/institutions out there that offers computer
professionals like me a fast track to a CS degree that will be
recognised as such by other universities (so that I can continue
with a MSc afterwards)"

Wait 'til you find out that you'll need to know REAL SUBJECTS like MATH and PHYSICS to get a degree.
You can't just fake your way through life anymore by cutting/pasting other people's Perl scripts.
See folks? You too can get a degree and be an insufferable dickhead to other people!

alternately, you can remove the sleep module from the kernel and keep some free time, but this has been known to cause unstable operation if sleep is completely and permanently removed (you might get away with using almost_no_sleep instead of the full sleep module.)
