Best licensing course in California - online vs in-person?
Hi, I'm trying to pursue a licensing course in California to become an agent. I thought that an online option would be more convenient, but I'm really not sure which school would be the best. I've done a bit of research, and I've found that each school offers a different package at a different price point: some include things such as Exam Prep/Practice Questions, Math Master, supplemental E-Books about the industry, etc. Some include an Exam Review/Crash Course; is this crucial? I am just not entirely sure which component is necessary, and which price point is reasonable.
I'm also considering an in-person option (near Glendora), but they are much more expensive, and all of the schools I was able to find have already started their classes. I feel that an in-person option would be better, but it looks like it might take longer as well. The schools I've found only offer one course at a time, and they run for about 6 weeks each...
Which website/school would you recommend? I've demoed Realestateexpress.com, but I found that the material was very convoluted, and I couldn't distinguish the important parts. I've also looked at various websites, but they all seem to have some negative, legitimate reviews, so I'm a bit lost as to how to select the best, but affordable, option.
I would appreciate any advice.
