I PASSED MY TEST! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

I did! I past my Real Estate exam! Really!

I know!

I am as surprised as you are!

I studied like crazy for about a month. I did. I printed off about 2,000 questions. I am not exaggerating. The study disk had 3000 questions on it but I got board way before printing out 2000 questions and really, isn't that enough? So I studied anywhere from 50 to 200 questions a day for about a month straight.

So I really felt confident taking only 150 questions at the exam.

Then I get there.

Everyone and I do mean everyone I talked to had taken the test at least once. One young man had taken it 4 times. As depressing as that all was I think that it relaxed me a little. I thought, no big deal. I'll take it again. I'll do the best I can and not sweat this.

Then I take the test.

The first 2 pages were a blank for me. I did not know the answers at all. But after that I felt that I breezed through about 50% of the questions. The test was not all that hard or tricky. Some questions I just forgot the answers to. There was so much to learn and I just couldn't remember it all. Some I hadn't even heard of before and some just didn't belong on the test. One question had to do with effeciency ratings and BTU's. Like I need to know that to fill out a contract or sell a house.

So I didn't think I passed. At all. My test result were do online Thursday. Thursday I was busy and Friday was pharmaceutical day, so yesterday, Saturday, BH asked if I gotten my results yet. He then thinks it will be fun to check. So he does. I don't even go into the office with him. I know I won't pass and I don't really care all that much. He comes back with a smile and tells me I passed.

"No I didn't." I still don't budge from the couch.

"Yes you did." Still grinning

"Stop it, I did not." I am not falling for this no matter how cute he looks right now.

"Come see."

"No and it's not funny."

"Really, you passed, come see."

And I sit at the computer and see, "Congratulations, you passed" I look carefully over the web site. It has my name on it. I passed.

WOW!

I PASSED!

I do a little victory dance and sing a "I passed my test" song.

WOW!

WOOOOHOOOOO!!!! CONGRATS!!! So, what are you going to do know that you have a license?

I work for a property management company and they also sell houses, business, land etc. I can legally show property now and assist the broker with sales. I'm pretty busy with prop management so I doubt that I'll 'farm' or advertise. The market also stinks right now. When things improve I may get more active.
