Life came at me unexpectedly. My plan was to go through the program twice and still have time to review some more. However, I was only able to fully complete the program once. The rest of my "studying" consisted of retaking and reviewing the practice tests and then taking the final mock and reviewing it as well. The week of the test I was in a different mental state due to unexpected personal news and being extremely ill at the same time. Two weeks prior to the exam, there was no time to study, no time to relax, no time to prepare ahead of time.  My mind revolved around what I was dealing with at the time. Still, I decided to go ahead and take the test.  If I failed, at least I would have an excuse.  So, I listened to the pep talk for the first time in my car on the way to the test center.  I was a mess.  I had my snack and juice and sat for the next 4 hours. I PASSED! I truly believe I passed because the program prepared me so well. Nothing was unexpected. Even the thoughts and emotions were anticipated. TDC is a great program and I recommend it to anyone preparing for their LCSW or MFT exams.
