Real Estate School (New Jersey)

So, am I the only one who feels that real estate school is nothing like what they said the career would be like.I feel like I've learned nothing, only obtained a license. Funny story, it took me going to another school with actual investors,brokers, & people who get there hands dirt in the business for me to truly learn what real estate is all about in all aspects. From landlording-flipping homes. Anyone, else feel like there should be a more extensive class that covers everything in depth about all types of real estate? Just a thought, I would love to hear everyone's opinions.
