I can tell you what I'm doing.
I happen to be a homeschooled student myself. My parents didn't want to send me to public school because I most likely wouldn't do well in a classroom setting. That's honestly understandable for a 5-year-old boy. Why would I want to sit in a classroom in a chair at a desk for several hours a day? I "freestyled" homeschooling until 8th grade. Meaning, I followed a curriculum my parents chose for me. As I got older, my parents gave me some more freedom to add topics I was interested in to my curriculum. For example, around grade 5 or 6, I got into programming a lot, and decided to spend a lot of time learning it. Around grade 7 or 8, I was really interested in world history. Spent time on that as well.
Now, I'm in high school. I would still consider myself a homeschooler, because I attend an online asynchronous school -- that offers high school diplomas -- from home. I could have continued freestyling my academic journey, but I decided to try online out. I kinda like it so far.
However, I do know some homeschoolers who decided to freestyle all the way until university, and they got accepted into great programs (this is in Canada, where I live). They used a portfolio as a way to show their academic performances. Stuff like competitions, science fairs, written works, personal projects, etc...
I hope that helps! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.

How great that your parents decided to give you a free education and even better that they allowed you to choose study topics of your interest, there is nothing better than researching, learning and educating yourself about subjects that you like, you could say that they gave you a study plan successful, they are an inspiration for me, that is precisely the way I want my daughter to receive an education. At this moment we are going with basic things due to her age, in the same way we have a notebook where we write down the doubts and questions that she has about any topic, she is at a very curious age and asks a lot of questions, so we are constantly doing small investigations of different scopes. I love that in Canada they are quite flexible with education, in Latin America it is practically mandatory (legally) to attend a formal school. Thank you for your contribution, it is very valuable.
