I cannot recommend this program enough--I was a bit hesitant to purchase it at first because of the price tag, but I can truly say that it was worth every penny. TDC provided me with excellent test taking tips, helped me focus and structure my studying, and provided me with such helpful lectures. It focused on the most important topics and helped learn how to do reasoning based questions. Upon entering my exam, I felt extremely well prepared! I looked at a few other study materials throughout my time, and I can honestly say they were not necessary. My success is truly related to TDC!

I'm a well-experienced SW but needed something to make me understand the exam. TDC was the answer. I crammed for 2 weeks. I didn't take any the mock or full practice exams. I repeated the DSM recordings and a few other recordings multiple times until I understood the information inside and out. I finished with a lot of time to spare. The test was brutal. I finished and only reviewed to ensure all questions were answered. I know if I go back and change answers is a NO NO. I passed with getting 120 out of 103 needed. What TDC made me realized the MOST is...there are multiple correct answers to almost every question but analyze the question and rank your answers.

I took my LCSW on 21st December and I passed. I believe that what made a difference was listening to the audio recordings as they are very specific and thorough. Thank you TDC :)

After taking the LCSW several times and failing it each time, I was becoming anxious, depressed and super nervous to take it again. Each time I took the exam, the process and test itself seemed to be harder and more stressful. Once I committed to the Therapist Development Center study plan, I started seeing studying for the test as a "learning opportunity" and that really changed my outlook. With the study plan and Amy Cuddy's "power pose" practice, I went into this test on the 28th with a different energy. I needed 103 to pass and I got 111! Not the best grade I have ever gotten but I WAS SO HAPPY TO PASS! Thank you TDC and Heidi especially who was able to do a one on one session with me a couple of weeks ago. I am so grateful that your program exists!

I truly appreciate TDC I graduated with my MSW in 2004 and struggled with test taking since elementary school. What helped me was the materials and how it was broken down I also appreciated the pep talk as well. I would recommend this program to others. Thank you!!!!!

This course was soo helpful! Amanda really helped me to think through the reasoning behind each answer and to strategize. I am grateful that I took this prep class! YAY!

Just want to say TDC is great! I passed first time taking my LCSW exam with this program. Amanda and Heidi are great!

I have been waiting to write this! I successfully passed my LCSW exam today after two prior attempts where I missed only by a few points. I can say with confidence that TDC provided an organized studying system as well as timely feedback to any questions I had throughout my studying. TDC also provided support, helpful resources and encouragement when I felt completely defeated and doubted myself. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, resources, and experience to help others succeed with this daunting exam. I will forever be grateful and praise TDC!

TDC adequately prepared me for the LCSW clinical examination! I was very confused when I started studying as I was not sure of where to start or what to focus on. With the help of TDC I was able to focus my studying on necessary content and most importantly, learn HOW TO THINK when taking the test!

Excellent material very helpful . I think in general this program was helpful in learning and gaining more knowledge about social work . i would recommend to anyone totally worth it !!!
