School and Real Estate

So I'm still on the learning train and starting in September I will be back in school for my Masters. It's going to be a 3 course week tuesdays and thursdays in the evening. I have always had this goal to get it to become a therapist. But this Real estate life has taken over by storm. My next action step is to get my RE License. I am currently waiting for the class to start in 2 weeks. My plan is to take the class and hopefully tackle the exam before/in September. After a semester, come winter/spring I would like to tackle becoming an agent part time. In the mean time I'd like to keep learning what it entails to be an agent and where I would want to work. By some guidance I have learned that it's me in the position to choose what I want from the brokerage and I ideally want to be in a position to learn from someone more than just the earning split. So my question is, is anyone out there balancing school and being an agent? School and being an investor specifically? School, agent and side job? Hahaha I do not want to set myself for failure by taking on too much so so far I like my plan of getting the test out the way then focusing on school then diving back into RE after 4-6 months or up to a year.
