Hello, I am a student nearly 17 years old, i have recently started doing my first class in coursera Introduction to astronomy from Duke university. Do you guys have some interesting lessons to start later? I am interesting in mathematics, physics and computer science, logic and foundations of mathematics. Any suggestions would be interesting. I don't care if the lesson is self paced or not.However i don't have much free time left to do what i want due to school obligations and extracurricular lessons :( i just want to learn some cool stuff that will help me later with my university studies, enrich my CV and generally speaking make me "complete"
