Obtaining RE License

My wife and I have contemplated getting our license to both help kick-start our investing career, and provide my wife with a career while we build upon our business. We are new to the thought of becoming agents, and have a good working knowledge about some of the trade. However, we know we are going to start taking classes.

We ran into www.realestateexpress.com and were thinking this would be a good way to go. Does anyone have any experience with them. Will this still provide us with a good knowledge base to begin, or is it merely an easy way to get licensed?

I used REE to get my license in CA and found it adequate. As @Brett Synicky suggested, make sure you run through a bunch of practice exams (at least 1000-1500 questions) prior to taking the test. Can't remember which package I chose but REE had this feature built in.

Getting your license is not hard (I'm sure we all know some less than competent agents). The real work in being an agent is finding leads. The paperwork anyone can learn.
