Wrote an answer below, but short-form, reading papers and such is likely a pretty good idea as you develop your core education. Plus it'll keep your eyes on the prize; the modern school system's meant for people who lead average lives, and if you're going at this rate, then the standards that it lays out clearly aren't for you.

And I have to google practically every fifth word. But still, it's kind of cool.
