You will have to audition for drama school. This will be a good test for you. You may think you are good enough, but will they? The good thing about going to a drama school is that as well as being taught by people who are in the business, you get to make contacts. Casting people and agents are usually invited to productions, especially graduation shows. Not everyone makes it through drama school - the lucky few get jobs before the end of the course. It is not the only way to get into the business, but one which possibly has the best springboard. (You usually get provisional membership of equity, but I don't think it means as much as it used to!) Good luck.

yep, great experience

That would problaly be the best way to become an actor. :)
your instructor could help you to find a agent. :)
