I don't think any of those are bad in isolation, or even in aggregate if you remove the experience one. It doesn't look all that different from the path I took, I graduate community college/trad school faster, but dropped out of high school. We're extremely luck to work in an industry where meaningful experience only requires a time investment, all our tools are free (or near free) and we can collaborate with other people around the world.
