It is really useful. Thank you so much :)

Great resource, unless you expect a degree!  You could watch every video and do every assignment on their site and become extremely enlightened, but if you're looking for a piece of paper, then your wallet will have to be lightened.

There's other sites that employ  the same concept, like TED and The Khan Academy.

Some of the above do issue degrees but you have to travel to a test centre such as HKG or SIN.
