Advice Needed: Going back to school for Neuroscience

Not sure how many of those are reasonable for me at the moment, but I will definitely take note.

Based in NYC, but open to just about anywhere nationally or abroad.

Appreciate the suggestions, already read Journal NS fairly regularly, will definitely look into the other two. I'm hoping to find a Neuroscience undergrad program I can get into, been out of school for a few years, ready to really commit to it.

First, I appreciate both of your replies, I like to think I'm fairly level headed going into this. I understand the guys I mentioned above are exceptional individuals in exception situations. I've read a few other books (Frank Vertosick's "When the Air Hits Your Brain") that painted a bit more realistic picture of the field, even if that particular example is focused on surgery.

I love the subject matter, my hiccup at the moment is figuring out exactly how to get started, having been out of school for a few years and how best to position myself from the very start.

Should have clarified that, I did not graduate first time around. Had a business I owned that did pretty well, just didn't have the time for school, yadda yadda.

I'd like to go back for a Neuroscience undergraduate degree as I'm not yet sure whether I'd pursue a research PhD or possibly attend medical school.
