" there's a major difference between having a certification in one area vs degree"
Really? I didn't know that. Thanks for the enlightenment.

Of course there's a difference, why else would CS degree require 4 years as oppose to 6 months? My point is that if getting any job in IT is the priority then you can get that knowledge in a short span of time, sometimes even 3 months. I was a self taught programmer who never had a CS degree and yet was teaching plus professionally working as a programmer.
And please spare your challenge of reverse engineering; hate to break it to you but that hardly is one of the toughest subjects of CS...bad example.
