Thank you so much for this study system. The test was hard but I had a plan and tools at my fingertips thanks to you.
Thank you so much for this study system. The test was hard but I had a plan and tools at my fingertips thanks to you.
I passed the Clinical Vignette Exam yesterday at the first try. Again, like in March when I took the Standard Written Exam, I followed Amanda's advice closely and this time it felt even more so than the first time that that was just the edge I needed to pass. Otherwise I would have probably let quite a few of the answer choices confuse me unnecessarily, but I stuck to the principle of using the framing questions and looked for the "Xs" and that clarified many of the possible choices.
Passed the first time!!! I went through the program twice, obtained a good gauge of where I was, what I needed to review and focus on, and even though while taking the test I wasn't confident of the answer I knew how to make the best choice. I went in confident of passing, and followed the instructions and thinking processes needed to pass, but also sharpened my skills as an LCSW. I cant thank you enough. I passed and had 14 points over.
This is the only program that I used, after hearing amazing things about it from friends and colleagues who had taken both the LCSW and Marriage and Family Therapy test preps. I could not have felt more prepared for the exam in every way possible, and when I was in doubt I had Amanda's encouraging words in my head. I am so grateful!
I couldn't be happier for the support I received from this system. I used it for the written exam on my second time (didn't pass first time using AATBS) and passed it as well. I feel that this system really prepares you on how to approach the test, and provides you with the tools and strategies on how to answer. I felt that the real clinical vignette exam was really hard, however I stood firm w/ utilizing what TDC had taught me. I have already recommended this system to all my coworkers who are getting ready to take their first test.
I am so thankful I found this study program before re-taking my exam. All the materials - quizzes, lectures, quick studies - were clear and relevant. All the information was pertinent to the test, and our profession, there was no "fluff" or unnecessary information mixed in. The mock exams left me feeling confident and listening to the lectures helped me understand the frame of thinking I had to embrace to understand how to take and pass the exam. I would highly recommend this program to anyone, especially those with test anxiety.
I really like the TDC program. The materials were easy to follow and the CV frames and rating system really helped me to feel more competent and less overwhelmed by the questions and materials. Thank you!
Again...I passed!!! This program was recommended to me by a friend who passed after using it, but was unsuccessful with other programs. I only used this program and passed the first time on both the written and vignette exams. I am so excited and relieved that this part of my journey is complete, thanks to the direction of this program. It is well put together, encouraged me to relax and continue enjoying my life and added bonus...got me back on track to self-care and exercise on a regular basis. Thanks again and I have definitely recommended it to others!!!
I would like to extend my deepest gratitude to the TDC family, especially Emily Pellegrino. I took the LMSW exam today and passed on my first try. I needed to answer 97 questions correct to pass, but I answered 121 correct, which was well over what was required. Thank you so much and I will be purchasing your program again once it's time for me to prepare for the LCSW.
Everything Amanda warned us about this exam was true. It helped me focus on the strategies necessary to zero in on the best choice. The pep-talks were also very important. All the information Amanda provided was utilized. Thanks so much! I am gratefully indebted. You are doing valuable work.
