I passed the exam on my first try! TDC is an excellent program to help you focus on areas that you need, and not waste time in areas that are not necessary. I also liked the lectures. The combination of audio, and practice exams, helped me to internalize the information. God covered me throughout the study process, through my test day, and finally my passing results. TDC, coupled with my faith, managed my anxiety and preparation for the exam. Thank you TDC!

The most difficult part of the exam for me was time management and accepting the uncertainty. It's so true that you don't feel like you're passing when you're taking it. I was literally having a visceral stress experience. I was sweating, heart beating out of my chest, eyes completely blood shot by the end. There were times when I felt like giving up. But Amanda's voice lives in my head rent-free and she said keep going; this is part of the experience. When the timer hit the halfway point, I was ten questions behind the halfway point in the exam. So the challenge became accepting that I'm not going to feel great about most of these and just getting to the end. I don't know if the second half felt easier or I just embraced the uncertainty, but I hit my stride and made it to the end with 90 seconds to spare. I took one break around #70.

I left the test room, picked up my results at the check in desk, waited until the elevator to look... PASS. I cried. I called my mom. It was a whole thing.

I think my biggest takeaway from the experience is that that after a certain point, it doesn't really matter how well versed you are in the clinical material itself; it's a matter of knowing how to think, embracing the uncertainty, and just making it to the end.

TDC prepared me extremely well for the LMFT exam. The test was very similar to the mock exams, and some of the questions were almost identical to mock questions. I would highly recommend this to study program to anyone!

I’m ecstatic with how well-prepared I was for the exam. I moved through the exam with ease and could not thank TDC more for such a thoughtful & thorough program! Thank you times a million! Worth every penny!

The exam was so much easier with your help. I saw A lot of similar questions from the practice exam on the real exam. And the study and testing tips were so helpful I kept reminding myself things they told us on the lecture such as “bring me into the exam with you”

I really loved the TDC Study Program for the CA Law and Ethics Exam. I enjoyed the audio lessons versus just printing out study guides. The audio allowed me to rewind when I wanted to hear something more than once and that came up a few times. I appreciated the rationale after each quiz and practice exam too. The rationales were extremely helpful. The entire study program was very detailed and covered everything. I don't think I would have passed just studying on my own. There's just so much material to cover and TDC did a great job of keeping things organized. Although I went through the program only once I would suggest incorporating a few extra study days just to ensure you are READY. I went through the practice exams more than once and believe it pushed my readiness over the edge so I felt confident walking into the exam room.

I've been out of the clinical field for about 6 years and out of school for 10 years so when I made the decision to revisit licensure and apply for subsequent registration, I was extremely anxious when the BBS told me that I must PASS in order to receive new registration. I'm also a horrible test taker so that added to my anxiety. Someone recommended the Ben Caldwell book and I purchased it to begin studying however, it just wasn't enough and lacked a plan and structure. Someone else then recommended TDC and once I saw the price I almost died but decided to purchase and boy was it the best decision! TDC is very detailed and structured (has a study schedule, anxiety management tips etc). I was concerned about the audio lectures as I'm a visual learner but being able to print out the handouts and take notes while listening to the lectures really helped. I passed the exam on my first attempt after being out of the field for so long thanks to TDC. This program really did give me the confidence that I needed. I will say, studying was a rollercoaster of emotions but by week 4 I was feeling confident and ready to take the exam. I highly recommend TDC and can't thank them enough! Also, the coach Asya was so amazing, supportive and responsive so just know that you will not be alone.

This study program really mimicked and thoroughly prepared me for the exam. I have recommended TDC to friends and other colleagues. Thank you, TDC for helping me successfully study and pass!

Amanda, you are amazing! The exam was hard but this study material really helped me. During the exam, you might feel like you are failing but you will pass! When you feel overwhelmed, take a deep breath and keep taking the test. It is all about anxiety management, and the answers are in the question. Even though English is my second language I passed the exam at the first time.Good luck everyone and again THANK YOU AMANDA:)

I followed the test prep and strategies, and although my exam was just as hard as the final mock, I was able to hang in and finish. Moreover, I felt this prep makes me a better clinician and builds self belief. Thank you Amanda and crew for your email responses and beyond thorough course. That test was gnarly.
