Study tips
Hello bp I'm currently in school to get my real estate license with so much information to learn and remember. What tips or chapters I need to focus on more to pass the exam .

Congrats on taking the step forward in your career!
Not sure if Illinois is much different, but here in Virginia the pre-license class is all about how to stay out of trouble whilst transacting real estate and the school I attended had a corresponding CD/web-app that was called "Test Taker" that would randomly generate practice questions to quiz yourself in preparation for the state and federal exams. I would suggest seeing if your instructor/school has something similar available. The purpose of the exams are to make sure you understand all of the laws and terminology associated with them so I would focus on studying the legal stuff and stay away from learning how to actually sell or interact in the market to keep on track. Learning how to fill out contracts and find properties will come after your license posts.
Best of luck with it and congrats again on the big step forward!
