 I just read an article in today's Fresno Bee title "Real Estate Loses Luster" that in April of 2005 at around the peak of the market there were 19,795 people who took the california real estate exam.  This July only 1,702 people took the exam.

According to the article, "everyone and his or her brother took the test to become a real estate agent hoping to cash in" ---- back then.

Hi Randy,

Interesting stats, can't say I'm surprised. I teach new member orientation at my association (in So Cal) and I can tell you they've really been cut back. It will also be interesting to see how the renewals will play out over the next couple of years.

BTW, I clicked over to your link but didn't find the article you were refering to.
