Tips or advice for a young investor

[Hector Liriano]

Hey guys, I have never signed up for a forum before and I'm completely new to this. I figure I should introduce myself and what I'd like to learn from the forum. 

I'm a recent college grad looking for my shot at entering the real estate world. I've always had a genuine interest in real estate but never had a mentor or anyone who can take me under their wing and teach me the ropes about this world and how to jump into it. I recently finished my real estate course and due to the COVID-19 out break I havent been able to take the test for my license. I try to study but after 45 min or so I find myself not retaining any info. Is there anyone out there that can offer some advice as to how I should go about studying to hopefully pass this in one shot?

Also, I am looking into becoming an investor as well. I want to buy a property and potentially flip it or just create a portfolio and make a business for myself. Any tips out there for a young investor?
