I have a degree in physics and 20 years of programming. Just out of curiosity, would I be weeded out in the first 25%?

Depends, do you mention your 20 years of programming on your resume?
I do have Java, Perl and C++ from SF City College - so I guess that counts.
Similarly, a candidate could have graduated top of their class from the most prestigious university in the world, but if they've never been able to hold a job for more than six months, that tells me something.
