Cowboy asked:
How much schooling do I need. Do I need to work for someone else after I am done with school and take a test? Is there a difference between agent and broker? I am at a crossroads and am considering real estate here in San Antonio.

There are dozens of real estate schools and any of them can help you estimate how much school you need. Some college hours count toward this.
Yes you will need a broker to work with- a company. The broker is the one that actually teaches you how to be a success in the type of real estate you want to practice. The school is very general and helps you pass the test.
An agent is able to practice real estate while they work for a broker. A broker can work by themselves. To be a broker it requires that you have been an agent for a while and have taken another test.
