Feel good about what your doing!

Once again, the main reason that aspiring actors/models don't do much, or anything at all in the industry is:  Bad information, usually from others that are either

a. Not in the industry at all
b. Have done very little more than playing an extra. 
c. Had little quality training themselves.
d. Are basically in the same place as far as moving up the ladder, as you are.

And YOU have done very little research on agencies, maybe looked at a modeling school or something similar that will tell you just about everything you've been wanting to hear.
Don't waste your time, energy, effort and money after any, or all of these have been happening to you. Check out a few 'real' agencies. Check us out. Call or google the Better Business Bureau, look at their reviews. Is the place you are going basically a school, selling classes?
And lastly, feel good about what you are doing.

Do your research

DO YOUR RESEARCH; ALL AGENCIES ARE 'NOT' THE SAME!
 
Talent agencies have certain requirements from talent that they choose to represent. At least the real ones do.
Some agencies require that you have everything in place when you see them. Photos, resume, training, experience etc.
Others will try to help you however they can with the limited resources you have provided. EXTRAS casting agencies really don't need professionals for the most part, just a body to put in a place. Of course these background roles don't pay much, but even for those trying to forge a career will have to do these parts to build a resume. Those playing background roles with nothing else to offer except their look for a day or so, are probably going no further than that, because they are not qualified to do so.
Other so called agencies are there to sell you expensive modeling classes or so, so acting classes. Some costing into the thousands of dollars. There are too many of these types scams to get into here.
So, DO YOUR RESEARCH, YOUR 'OWN' RESEARCH. Don't listen to gossip from those that are in exactly the same place as you, with exactly the same training as you (if you have little or none). So, do your own.
ALL AGENCIES ARE NOT THE SAME.
