Real Estate license; Where to go to school.

Hello Everybody,

I wish to obtain my real estate license.  I hope that I could garner some information in choosing a school. I am in Los Angeles, CA. There are so many choices for schooling, i am sure some of the choices are scams. 

When searching for schools, what are some red flags I should be aware of?

Are they any schools in the Los Angeles area people recommend?

Seems like most real estate classes are mostly for prepping a student for the licensing exam, is there other schooling that would help, such as a BA?

Thank you for reading this post and any feedback  to the questions or post would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You,

Mark
