Considering that the only reason I'm taking it is to boost my chances of landing an interview based on the IIT tag, and that I'm already taking MOOCs from reputed foreign universities like Harvard and MIT via Coursera, edX etc, I'm in two minds if the online degree still be worth the sacrifice of time and social life.
