My painful experience with PreLicenseTraining.com

Hi everyone,

I have taken the required class at prelicensetraining.com including the study hull which has bunch of study questions and answers to get my P&C license (for California), however I failed the test, the test was nothing like what I had studied...

What do I do?
Are there any other better classes I can take?

I have just found out that some companies sponsor you to get your license, can I still do that? or since I have started on my own I have to finish it on my own?

What company should I start out with; I like to start with Auto insurance.

My background is in mortgages sales and secondary marking of mortgages so I do not have any experience in insurance and I am very excited to learn about it and start my new career...

Sorry for the long questions, any help would be greatly appreciated...
