what is the quickest / most efficent way to make isk? I've been mining and looking at getting a mining barge but the costs on them seem to out weigh the rewards of having one.

well that really depends on your skills.
if most of your skills are in mining....join 0.0 alliance, or use wormhole and mine mercoxit or ABC ores.
if your skills are in combat Level 4 missions(or work up to it) or rat in 0.0 or sleepers in wormholes.
or exploration (archelogy salvaging)
if your low skill level probably the quickest cash is train destroyer and salvaging...and find someone you can follow and salvage their missions, or salvage anomolies in 0.0.
Trading (requires a little nest egg to start) can work but usually requires a lot of babysitting the orders.
The better question is what do you want to do....if you just try to make ISK the game gets boring quick.
The answer you want really varies....a 2million sp character would get a different answer than a 5 million or a 10 million or a 20 million sp character.
I have absolutely no idea what any of that means, sorry pretty new to this game, if you could be a little more explainitory that would be great.

I could give you the answer but where is the fun in that :)
Seriously part of the fun you can have in eve is figuring out how to outsmart the other chumps grinding for isk.
There are loads of ways. Here are some clues.
1. mining for a new player is not the most profitable thing to do at all.
2. the game eve has a very well developed item exchange system aka the market. The devs putting so much effort into it should give you a clue.
3. ?
4. profit
methinks you are trying to tell me to merch, which i could probably do.

Apparently there is some NPC named Estamel. Might be worth an ISK or two...
EDIT:
Wait, I just realized I'm in the newbie's forums. Sorry about that.
As I was saying, there are various "named" NPCs, called "officers". They spawn only in 0.0 space, but the loot they drop can be worth *billions* of ISK. I named "Estamel" specifically because Estamel has a chance of dropping "Estamel's Modified Invulnerability Field", which is perhaps the most valuable module in the entire game, worth even more than most capital ships.
and i bet it takes one of those big ass ships to kill it right? :/
