It doesn't have any meaning, at least for me. If your aim, when you started to learn, was to follow a CS course (say, MIT courses), then you are going to have an equal knowledge. If your aim was to build your first web site and do HTML/CSS/JS and PHP stuff, then you are going to learn it and do it.

You cannot know everything anyway, no? And CS courses differs from an university to another. The benefit of being self-taught is that you choose the materials yourself and you are enlightened when you study it.
