Answer
Jamie,
You are in a very good place to get started in a chiropractic career.  One of the very best schools of chiropractic in the country is right there in the Chicago area, National University of Health Sciences at Lombard, IL.
The most important "tip", at this point, would to inquire at the school to see what college prerequisets will be needed before your application can be considered.  You should read as much as possible on the chiropractic arts and sciences to make sure this is truely a career you would be interested in.  Try these links:
