Hi Sherif,
In my opinion degree is important only if you are looking for
big break.
By education i am an electronics guy. When i decided to switch the field, i
first enrolled
a part time CS PG course teaching only pure CS basics. When My course was
completed, i left that job n got into software.when i got into software, i
did a proper ( 3years < ) bachelors degree in IT by correspondence .
In long run what matters is your problem solving capacity , adaptability and
speed.
