I was very unsure of myself, but came through great! I felt I knew most of the questions' answers, I was happy I had a snack for half way, and just well prepared. I scored 122 and was finished in just over 2 hours.
The Therapist Development Center workshops on-line taught me well: they helped clarify my thinking and gave me tools, to narrow my answers. Both the written and the CVE questions can be very subtle.
Amanda was always very positive, encouraging, approachable and human. She is to be commended for her unselfish and ethical approach to helping people become licensed.
Thank you so much Amanda for TDC its a great program. I reviewed once and I felt ready. I am so ready to listen to the written clinical vignette study material. I know that I will past the 2nd part by using TDC. Thanks again for the wonderful program.
Just wanted to let you know that I PASSED!!!!! the LCSW California standard written exam!!! Im so excited and it took me a while to let it sink in. I followed all the strategies that Amanda stated exactly and I got to say that it totally helped me this time...I cant express how happy I am that I finally got past this huge hurdle.
Thank you so much for sticking with me through my exam! Studying seemed so overwhelming, but I really felt like you broke all the topics down so they were actually manageable. The thing that helped me the most was understanding how to read the questions and what it was actually asking. I think it saved me several times! Thanks again...one more test to go!
I was nearing the end of my 5-year provisional licensure status. In those years, I'd changed jobs, had two children and moved, so I didn't have much time to prepare for my clinical exam. I noticed an advertisement for the Therapist Development Center in an NASW publication and checked them out online. I purchased the National LCSW Exam Prep program and studied for less than 2 weeks ... all while working full-time and caring for our young children. I passed with a 90% on my first try! Thanks so much to TDC ... they were wonderful!
Thank you to the Therapist Development Center for this amazing study tool! I passed the test on my first attempt. I put off taking the test for years because of anxiety around how to organize myself and study properly. I finally decided I had to stop procrastinating and found the Therapist Development Center online. This was the best money I have ever spent! The audio lectures combined with the printed materials were exactly what I needed to get motivated and stay focused. Thank you to TDC and their team for putting together such a fantastic tool!
Thank you TDC. Your tips, suggestions, materials and support definitely prepared me to pass this exam. I'll recommend your program to others.
I want to say thank you to the Therapist Development Center for giving me the skills to pass the LCSW Clinical Vignette Exam. I took the test for the first time (10-11-2013) and passed. I would definitely recommended this program to others. Thank you TDC for all your help and material.
I passed the first time!! I tried another testing company and was overwhelmed by all the material and minimal guidance, eventually becoming demoralized and ready to give up. Then I found TDC upon recommendation from another social worker and it was amazing!! Far superior to other programs. Amanda's confident and reassuring voice makes the whole process more personal.
