Thank you so much for helping me pass my exam! The test was hard, but the mocks were harder so i'm so grateful that I have this program to guide me through.

TDC's tips on How to Study were very helpful. I recommend reviewing this before you take mock exams and again before taking the actual exams. The mocks were challenging but because of this I ended up being more than prepared for BBS's questions. It was like resistance training for the brain!

I passed, and I thought TDC would benefit from knowing that I was prepared enough to pass even though I could not finish test within allotted time. I was really concerned going into test because I could not finish any of the mock exams within the allotted time, averaging 70 questions left on each mock exam (I have LDs but was denied accommodations - I appealed and was granted accommodations for a future test date-but I had already scheduled today's test- I decided it would be good for me to go ahead and take it for the practice). I went in with the mindset of "leaning in" and ROCKED it- I made it to question 160 before time ran out. Thank you!!! I learned so much from this program!!!! I am grateful for the time, energy and thoroughness of the program- I know it has made me a better clinician.

You guys are beyond amazing!! I cannot say enough good things about you. I signed up for your course in the midst of a dense depression having just gone through some major life traumas. I could not pull myself out of it during those 6 months and had to leave the country and go traveling in Asia to break out of the funk I was in. Whilst there I found renewed passion and enthusiasm for my career and this process. I was sat in a cafe in Chiangmai Thailand, and I logged on here and found that as of 3 days prior my 6 months had expired. I know what the corporate environment can be like. I sent off a speculative email explaining my position and how, although I had wanted to take advantage of the course, I had not used it at all in the timeframe allocated. I expected at best, based on previous experiences in these kind of environments, a pitched battle where I had to send countless emails justifying my position, and at worst a flat out 'no, pay again or bye' basically. So it was with amazement, whilst still sat in the same cafe, that I got back the brief response, 'no problem, you're all set. You have been given an extension for another 6 months.' That was it! No arguing, no accusation, no 'justify yourself.' And so has been my experience throughout this lengthy process. A company that walks it's talk and lives it's professed values. Rare and treasured. You guys have been unbeleivable throughout, and the level of preparedness I had walking into the exam gave me all the confidence I needed. In particular, the advice early on, and reiterated at the end, that I would feel like I was failing whilst taking the exam, and not to panic when that happened, was immeasurably helpful. You guys have been with me through personal struggles, exam rescheduling, COVID, all of it. Thank you so so much!

You guys are the best!! Keep doing what you're doing. You are needed and appreciated.

Taking the clinical exam in times of COVID added pressure and stress; however, wearing the mask for 4+ hours was the easy part, at least for me. Passing the exam was the culmination of everything I've worked for, and I needed to feel prepared. TDC helped me prepare for the Law & Ethics and I trusted that TDC would also help me prepare for this exam, and I was not wrong. When I took the final mock 1, I scored poorly (48%), my anxiety level sky-rocketed and I reached out to my TDC coach, who responded in a timely manner and provided valuable guidance. In retrospect, I believe this was the moment the switch was turned on; I reviewed each wrong question carefully and identified both the rationale and the 'a-ha' moments I had previously missed. On the day of my exam, I knew I had to put my 'emotional side' outside the testing room and focused on each question, assessing not assuming. I read the vignettes word for word and framed each question as Amanda suggested, and the technique worked wonderfully for me. I would highly recommend TDC to anyone who is out there shopping for the best program to help them prepare for the Law & Ethics and the clinical exam, I passed them both the first time I took them, and today, I am officially a LMFT. Thank you, TDC!!!

Becoming a licensed MFT has taken me 17 years but I never gave up and so appreciate all aspects of the TDC course. I aced the test because you guys were so helpful and kept me going a a positive direction and got me so prepared I was almost anxiety free which was amazing for me given my test taking history. I feel so much more well rounded and competent as a clinician now as willed ,from this experience.
Thank you

Both Robin and Asya were so patient with me. I struggled with test anxiety and constantly badgered them and they were understanding, patient, and they along with Amanda's program helped me get through this and pass!

Let me tell you this has been quite the journey for me. I returned to school to obtain my BA as a birthday gift to myself when I turned 40 in 2014. I graduated with a 4.0 GPA in Oct 2016. I started my Masters program November of 2016 and graduated with a 3.94 in August 2018. During this time, I found my birth family (I am adopted) and dealt with substance abuse issues with my brother. I managed to complete my 3000 hours within 2 years of graduation and am now a LMFT as of June 2020. This has been a wild ride for sure. TDC was so helpful in preparing me and assisting with reducing my test anxiety for both my Law & Ethics exam and Clinical exam. I cannot thank you enough for all the quick responses to my questions and extensions. I have recommended this program to several of my friends and will continue to do so. Thank you again!!

Great program overall. Easy to follow and the tips that were provided were realistic and helpful to pass the test. Worth every penny. Thank you.

Studying with TDC was a game changer for me. I had taken the test once prior using different study materials, and went in completely unprepared. TDC's materials from the audio lectures, quick studies, audio rationales and practices tests were all so helpful. While taking the test, I did not feel intimidated by the questions or answers. I felt prepared. Not only did this program help me pass the clinical exam, it has made me a better clinician.
