A Sea Of Red

I prolly should've put this on here earlier but I'm just remembering to now. Some of you that know me know that I was a real estate appraiser while I was at Coastal. I took the classes my first year out of high school at the community college, and then worked in SC for six months. Well, Virginia is requiring a test because they don't do apprentices. I took the test a little over a month ago and made a 67 when I needed a 75. This was after driving around Roanoke lost for an hour. I know how to do the appraisals, the language and the way the questions are written is what gives me problems though. I'm retaking my test tomorrow (Tuesday) at 1pm. If I pass it, I'll have a great paying job and will still be able to do anything with the Student Flames Club and all of that. If I don't pass, I'm gonna hafta go ahead and move back to Lynchburg and find a job that'll probably hinder me from a lot of the stuff I want to do with the club. If you guys can just throw up a prayer to the Big Guy for me it'd be appreciated. The test is at 1 Tuesday afternoon in Roanoke. Thanks guys.

I'll be saying one down here in Texas.

Jesus is NOT your HOMEBOY!

A little Tre Faulkner quote there

Will be praying for you to ace that test. Go get em on today!!!!!!

will do so: be confident man- you'll be fine. anyway- if it is to be, it will be

(not to get overly philosophical here)

is cheating out of the question?

LOL! That is great. I don't think he'll need to. SJ will do fine.

Well SJ just texted me and said that he missed it by 5 questions... So yes cheating sounded like a GOOD option!!!!!!!!

no doubt other opportunities will come your way SJ- shake it off, bro

man, I hear the lady flames are looking for a new announcer....but SHHHHHH I dont think the person knows yet

SJ, hang in there bro. right now it may not be God's will for you. i will continue to pray for you brother.

I missed it on two parts. I brought up the parts that I worked on bringing up, just not high enough. I missed the questions on different types of loans and that crap. It's stuff that I'm required to know but don't ever use. Oh well, I think I'll retake it when I get back from vacation.

is there a limit on how many times you can take it? There is a local Realtor who is ALL over me to take the course and start working for him

I don't know if there's a limit.

Remember, I'm not trying to be a Real Estate Agent selling houses. It's a Real Estate Appraisal. I tell ya how much they're worth, agents and brokers sell them.

I forgot about that

SJ, that is a good biz to be in. i have a close friend in raleigh that does it and he is doing very well for himself. if you want to talk to him, let me know.

My dad does it. He's done it since I was in 8th grade so I've been around it for a while.

just thought i would offer.
