If you're younger or aren't on a go-go-go fast, I need a degree, and you want to dip your feet into school you might want to consider a semester or two at a community college to get some of those harder RA classes (lab science, for one). NJ has a program that can cover up to 100% of tuition, depending on household income: https://www.nj.gov/highereducation/ccog.shtml.
I've taken a semester at CC over 10 years ago (32 now). I make enough so I'm unfortunately over the threshold of free education and have a full time job so can only devote 2-4 hours a day towards study.
