X Bubbler: Khan Academy makes math-lovers

Khan Academy makes math-lovers

When you visit KhanAcademy.org, go straight to PRACTICE. Within one hour, math has become a fun, competitive sport. At least that's what my young cousin experienced; for days, he kept going back to do more math drills and score more points and badges.

So don't hate math, just play Khan.

For older folk, Khan trains in Contemporary Finance topics (example: Systemic Risk), Aptitude tests like SAT and GMAT, Entrance exams like IIT JEE (India), standard curricula like Singapore and some US states, a bit of the sciences - physics, chemistry...all for the price of your video-capable internet connection.
