I am horrible test taker and English is my second language, german native here. I was worried and doubted my ability to pass on the first try, I did TDCs program three times and passed with flying colors. I prepared myself based on the guidelines in the study prep and it helped me soothe my anxiety. I used other studying book materials before trying TDC but it wasn't helpful, no information was sticking. Anyways, it's a great program!! I can only highly recommend it, especially for those who grow up with a different language.

I came across TDC soon after starting my MSW journey in 2020. I saved the information for future use especially because of the discounts for military and veterans. I am in my last quarter of school and will graduate next month in February. I requested for the military discount after I had my exam date scheduled and heard back within an appropriate time frame. I liked the audio part of the program as I was able to listen to the information while driving. I also liked the anecdotal stories that helped me remember the information. TDC study material was simple and to the point. I purchased another study material which was a physical book and found it was very overwhelming with too much information. The TDC mock exam was very close to and indicative of the ASWB board practice and actual exam. I would definitely recommend TDC to everyone. First time to pass the licensure exam and passed before the conferral of my degree. Thank you to TDC. I will be back for the LCSW Exam.

Hi TDC Family, Today I passed my LMSW! When I first began this road with TDC, I scored a 58% on the Top 50 pretest. I was mortified. Having graduated last May, I knew I wasn't ready to take the exam, so I procrastinated until a recent job offer was contingent upon my successful passing. So, seven weeks ago, I started with another test prep company, which I won't name. But, I quickly realized I would need a different teaching method than just utilizing acronyms. Realizing that I was running out of time, I remembered TDC as a suggestion from my professor. So, I committed to the investment. After my first pass-through of the materials, I scored 64% on the DSM 5 exam, 86% on the Values and Ethics, and 82% on the crisis. Then, I scored a 72% on Mock exam one and a 74% on mock exam two. As outlined by the study plan, I repeated the course, and my scores increased to 86%, 86%, 90%, 90%, and 88%, respectively. I ended the course scoring an 82% on the final mock exam. If you're CONSIDERING purchasing this course, stop it! Just buy the course and be glad that you did. In six weeks, I went from "Questioning my ability to successfully pass the exam to walking into the testing center this morning feeling confident and prepared that I knew the material and was ready to pass!" Thank you so much.

TDC has really helped me with understanding some of the overwhelming material that is hard to breakdown.

TDC helped me ace my LMSW exam. I had been practicing in Canada for 10+ years and was moving to America and now required to write an exam to register as a social worker. I was nervous and unsure how to begin preparing for the exam. TDC was well organized; with its easy to navigate portal and up to date content, it put me at ease. I plan to use TDC for my future LCSW exam. I highly recommend it!

The TDC exam prep was very thorough and helped me really understand how to answer questions on the exam. Without TDC I don't think I would have passed on the first try, let alone by 25 points. While it is expensive, I think it is worth it.

I am so thankful for the Therapist Development Center program! After failing the New York State LMSW exam multiple times, I was ready to give up—but God led me to this amazing resource through a friend. The program broke everything down so clearly and simply that it finally all made sense.

Through prayer, persistence, and this program, I passed my LMSW exam! 🙌🏽 I’m beyond grateful and will definitely be using it again as I prepare for my LCSW exam. Truly a blessing! 💛🙏🏽

First time taking it, and because of the material TDC provided I felt ready and confident.

I had taken the LSW/LMSW exam in Indiana twice before, once failing by 4 points (94/98) and the second time failing by 3 points (95/98). Though I was a step in the right direction on my second attempt, it still wasn't enough and I knew that I needed to change my study approach. At that point I decided to invest in TDC. I am proud to say that it kept me on the right track, for I recently passed on 10/22/25 with 112 correct answers out of 97 needed to pass. My first two attempts I was utilizing a small variety of different study materials. On my most recent passing attempt I only utilized TDC. It gave me that extra little push that I needed in order to get a result that I am more than happy with.

I’m so happy to share that I officially passed my LMSW exam! 🥳

Just a year ago, I was researching different programs to help me prepare and came across TDC. After reading countless positive reviews and learning more about the program, I felt confident giving it a try—and I’m so glad I did!

TDC truly exceeded my expectations. The content, structure, and strategies were exactly what I needed to feel prepared and confident on exam day. Honestly, this program is all you need to study and actually pass.

I’ve already recommended TDC to friends and family, and I highly recommend it to you too if you’re still deciding which program to use.Thank you so much, TDC, for helping me reach this huge milestone! 🙌
