A British five year old [bbc.co.uk] has passed the MCP exam, proving he's both a Minesweeper Consultant as well as a Solitaire Expert. His family pretty much agree that it's just a matter of memorising the multiple choice answers: The hardest challenge was explaining the language of the test to a five-year-old.
