    Studying Using Khan Academy for calculus and linear algebra with supplementary resources

    I will have fun with it! A smaller reason that I'm doing this is to challenge myself. I also have Asperger's Syndrome, and this is one of my "Special Interests". I feel that I could learn some of the easier subjects in a month, and the harder subjects will take much longer.
