Pass the State Exam.
WHAT IS THE ANTHONY PROGRAM? Anthony Schools offers a thorough and structured, but not rigid, program that will help you throughout the licensing process:
(1) Real Estate Principles
10 four-hour classes that you may attend on a flexible
schedule because each class covers a different subject. We teach from well-organized, printed outlines (included in your tuition) so that you do not have to take notes in class. 10 quizzes (take one after each class). You find out immediately how you are doing. 10 final exams--review your test with detailed explanations of the correct answers--you will be able to answer every kind of problem on the State exam! Based on your progress, we will help you decide when to take the State exam.
(2) Real Estate Practice
This course covers how to get started in the
business and then stresses what agents should do every day to be successful--the
practical aspects of preparing competitive market analyses, obtaining and
servicing listings, showing property, arranging financing, closing the deal and
handling the details so that escrow closes. See the
live class schedule or take it
anytime on DVD
(3) Legal Aspects of Real Estate
Although you may choose any of our 8
electives, Legal Aspects will be
the most helpful in preparing for your state exam. Available live, on DVD or by
independent study (i/s).
THE STATE EXAM The exam is held in Oakland
and San Jose several weekdays each month. To pass, you must answer 70% of the 150 multiple-choice questions correctly within 3¼ hours. We supply the forms needed to file your application and will help you fill them out.
About half of all examinees fail whereas over 90% of our graduates pass the State exam on the first attempt. Detailed statistics are posted monthly on the bulletin board--we are proud of our students' success!
HOW DO I FIND A JOB?
Fill out one of our green cards, requesting that brokers contact you. Check our bulletin board: many brokers who are eager to hire our graduates have posted job listings. Talk with brokers who come to visit during class breaks. Attend career
nights.

"Anthony's
School in Foster City was the right choice for Real Estate Education for me. I
looked forward to each class whether it was live or taped. Classes are always
open for student discussions as well as up to date information. I was so
impressed with passing the first time with their program that I have already
signed up for my classes to prepare for my Broker's License Exam when ready. I
thank Kathy and Jim for their staff's standard of professionalism."

"After graduating college, I was eager to learn more. I went to Anthony
Schools to achieve my goal of obtaining my real estate salesperson license.
Since having a hectic day-to-day schedule, the flexible layout of the live
classes and video sessions helped me complete the training quickly.
"My experience at Anthony exceeded my expectations. The friendly
and knowledgeable staff was there to teach, guide, and assist me with
anything I needed to pass the state exam the first time. I am fully
satisfied with the knowledge I have gained and look forward to going back to
further my education. Without a doubt, I highly recommend going to Anthony
Schools to jumpstart a real estate career."

TESTIMONIAL

"As a college student and
young entrepreneur, I sought an accelerated program to prepare for the
California Real Estate Salesperson's exam. Anthony's was a clear choice.
Anthony's offers engaging classes, knowledgeable professors, networking
opportunities and a wealth of class materials which provided me with a solid
foundation from which to study for the state exam.
"I felt confident heading
into the Exam and was very well prepared. Many of the Exam questions were
taken directly from class materials. Needless to say, I passed the State
Exam on my first try. I recommend Anthony's without any hesitation.
"I am currently in my second
year of studies as a Communications major at Furman University in South
Carolina. I will be affiliating with a broker as a referral agent while I
pursue my college degree, and plan to actively pursue a career involving
real estate in my future."

"It's difficult to
quantify the tremendous leverage that Anthony Schools can deliver to a real
estate professional over the course of their career. From ensuring your
success at the state testing level, to practical real world knowledge
imparted by experienced instructors, to the availability of all the
different classes, you could not ask for a better partner.

 "My
experience as a student at Anthony Schools was great. I was very motivated to
pass all my classes as soon as possible, so I could take the state exam. The
teachers and videos were great and if I had any problems I would get immediate
feedback from an instructor or Kathy. I could not have passed all three classes
in less than 3 months and pass the state exam without Anthony Schools.
"After I received my license I signed on with Broker George Chopoff
of RE/MAX Star Properties. Which was a great fit right from the start, within 15
days I had my first listing. My listing was a house in Emerald Hills for
$1,880,000 which I sold in less than 40 days. In my 3.5 months as a real estate
agent I now have 6 listings which is up there with the top producers at RE/MAX.
"I would like to send a big Thank You to Anthony Schools and Kathy
for all their support & guidance."
