I've been chatting with graduate students about lack of background in statistics, and some of you apparently have been using the "Khan Academy" to do tutorials on the basics of statistics. I had never heard of this guy in his closet in the Silicon Valley, but I am now amazed and totally hooked on the concept.
In any case, if you are in need of a statistics "course" to do at your own speed, to give yourself the basics of statistics, for free, then his tutorials are here (just scroll down to the statistics section). It is very basic, but appears to be inspirationally well-taught.
If you are interested in the whole concept and life story of this guy (which is quite fascinating) watch his video lecture here.
