Benefits?

Hi.

I'm 15, and have recently done my O Levels. Some people
suggest doing MCSE and CCNA. Are these of any benefit to
me at this stage? ('any'?) And how exactly will they be of
any benefit later on?

Suppose what you want about the career I will choose, just
let me know the short-term and long-term benefits for me.

Thanks.

No, they are useless at this point concentrate on your formal education and
getting a university degree in IT then worry about the certs when you can
actually apply them to the job market. At your age you would probably find
that not many people would take you seriously if you had these certs.
