I highly recommend utilizing TDC for the LCSW exam. I felt ready and prepared! Thank you so much for this excellent program. All the tips and guidance were super helpful! (And yes, you can take cough drops in on a tissue) Don’t forget them! You got this future LCSW! You are in good hands with Amanda!
SUPER HELPFUL! I had a hard time creating a study schedule and guide for myself when studying for the exam in the past. TDC gives you everything you need and a schedule that makes studying easy and efficient. I also appreciated that TDC reviewed what the purpose of the exam is and how to think of the questions, this really helped me. Overall 10/10!
The system is great for someone who works and maintains a tight schedule! It covers everything you need and breaks specific topic areas down in a way that you are able to refresh in those areas...rather it be figuring out what a question is asking to theories, ethics or DSM!! Also the fact that it includes audio and visual tools for learning!! I could go on and on but if you know your way of learning, this system is modifiable to meet your needs!!! I really wish I had known about this program when studying for the LMSW exam...!!!
I can't begin to Thank You enough for having this program. I felt the Mock Exams, the full and 85-question tests, were SO SPOT ON & taught the material in a way that I understood. I truly learned and grew through completing this program. I listened to the Ethics Recording the morning of my test, and that was tremendously helpful in going into the exam with the COE fresh on my mind. I learned through every aspect of the TDC program, and I am a better social worker, now, that I have completed the program. Worth the money spent.
The TDC created a study guide that allowed me to cover and process the material. I was originally overwhelmed by the exam, especially the DSM but TDC was able to help me process differences between diagnosis. TDC showed me how to work through challenging questions and gave me confidence. I could not of asked for a better guide. Thank You!
TDC is great. With their excellent study materials and lectures, I have been able to successfully pass my CA Law and Ethics exam, ASWB Master's level exam, and ASWB Clinical exam, all on the first attempt. Thank you guys so much!
I received my LSW in 2016, and figured I would gain my LCSW 2 years later after earning my clinical, supervision hours, etc. Shortly after finishing my hours, I took the exam and failed by 2 points. I became extremely discouraged, and let life pass by before rescheduling. Since getting my LSW, I have had 3 jobs, got engaged, bought a house, adopted a dog, navigated life through a pandemic, got married during a pandemic, and realized that it was finally time to face this test. TDC came recommended by so many people on Facebook. Initially I was hesitant to pay so much money, but boy was it worth it! I went from failing by 2 points the first time around, to passing by 12 points the second time around. I would definitely recommend TDC in a heart beat!
I passed my LCSW Clinical Exam on first try scoring 120/150 with the help of TDC and an ASWB mock exam to better apply TDC materials and tie the relevance gap with the actual exam difficulty. The two went hand in hand, and TDC materials matched similar difficulty/testing style of the actual exam. TDC audio lectures tied in well with reading materials, and mock practice exams were good opportunities to apply program teachings. I'd say TDC quizzes and mock tests do tend to be a bit easier than the actual board exam for the purpose of tying in the lecture materials with easy application for understanding, but they are not too easy to the point of being ineffective in preparing you for the exam. I enjoyed TDC's very practical and humanistic approach to not only prepare you for the objective knowledge, but give you very personal tips/structures that you can absorb easily without feeling overwhelmed with information/anxiety. I also used TDC for my LCSW Law & Ethics Exam, which I also passed on the first try. Well done, and highly recommend.
Follow their system; it works
TDC has an excellent program and the key is to follow their recommendation. Having the study calendar was so helpful and I was able to stay organized and on track. The fact that they are with you until you pass is a huge plus too. Make an investment in yourself and your future. Completely worth it.
