Should I pick up a license within real estate?
I'm pursuing a software engineering career and am currently enrolled in college. I am also trying to start my real estate journey at the same time. I would like to learn more about real estate and have more connections within the industry. Is it a good idea to pick up a license (exp: real estate agent license, appraiser license, home inspector license, etc) and work part-time with the license?

I give the same answer to everyone.
It’s a tremendous advantage if you are actually practicing in the field. So if you are actually going to do the job a little more than part time.
if you aren’t going to do that then you’re just spending money and occasionally saving a little. The classes for these fields aren’t close in value to the benefit you get from actually doing the job.
Personally I’d stick to software engineering. You’ll make more money
