A quick definition of Real estate agent:

A real estate agent is a person who helps people buy, sell, or rent houses, buildings, and offices. They have a special license that allows them to do this job. They can work for the person selling the property, the person buying the property, or both. To become a real estate agent, a person needs to take classes and pass a test. They get paid by getting a percentage of the money from the sale or rental of the property. Real estate agents can help with things like setting prices, finding properties, and doing paperwork.

A more thorough explanation:

A real estate agent is a licensed professional who helps people buy, sell, or rent properties such as houses, buildings, and offices. They can represent either the buyer, the seller, or both parties in a real estate transaction.

To become a real estate agent, a person must complete a set number of pre-licensing training hours and pass a written exam covering federal and state laws related to real estate. They must also affiliate with a real estate broker. Real estate agents are paid through commissions based on the sale, purchase, or rental of a property.

Real estate agents can perform various tasks depending on whether they represent the buyer or the seller. For example, they can advise clients on listing or bidding prices, prepare properties for listing, research the market, search for available properties, coordinate open houses, and complete the necessary paperwork to close a transaction.

  • When John decided to sell his house, he hired a real estate agent to help him list the property and find potential buyers.
  • When Sarah wanted to buy a new apartment, she contacted a real estate agent who helped her search for available properties and negotiate the price with the seller.
  • When Tom and Mary decided to rent their commercial space, they hired a real estate agent to advertise the property and find potential tenants.

These examples illustrate how a real estate agent can assist clients in different types of real estate transactions, whether it's selling, buying, or renting a property.

@llama: your cycle confuses me, your stats are good and you applied early but all of those Rs? Is there anything weird about your app?
RasheedWallaceFan
12:53

RasheedWallaceFan
12:55

llama

@RasheedWallaceFan: Hi. Yes, I waited for April LSAT, put almost all apps (which were sent really early) so that basically most of my apps were reviewed In May. Shot myself in the foot for 155 -> 161 lmao. Would not recommend 10/10
llama
12:57
@RasheedWallaceFan: unironically, KSLS was my top choice, however by April LSAT their app had closed. It was like waiting to date ur dream partner, but waiting until you graduate uni, then by the time u graduate uni, your soul mate is already married with 2.4 kids and 1.6 dogs. Heartbreak.exe fr fr

No, I think what I will do is flip a coin: heds NKU, tails NEL|B what u guys think bout dat. Then once 1L - if good at LS, try to transfer, if bad at LS or one of my grandiose ideas/inventions are viable, drop out and pursue.

Most schools will hold your application for the next test score to be released into your account as well. I was notified by an admissions director that if a decision is processed they will not retroactively go back for the new score even if higher

@Bettercaulsaul: in my experience, there is often an option on the application for you to choose whether you'd like them to review your application as-is ASAP or hold it until your new score is released. but it probably varies by school—I just remember seeing that option on at least a few app forms
llama

While I am unsure of what option you are referring to, I personally just emailed each school and asked for them to hold my app pending my lsat score release.
