I have taken many paid for sales training courses over my career along with other paid for class's one can study on their own to be a Morgage broker ( I am a Mortgage Banker personally) and I could never have passed the test without the advanced cram course in that subject matter same with RE brokers license you don't need to pay for training but you do need it to pass the test at least 90% of the folks do some are simply smart enough to read a book and pass it but most are not my self included when I was starting out.
