This this program was a blessing a definitely what I needed to pass the ASWB Exam. I am excited that I finally passed the exam and would recommend this program to future candidates for licensing.

Therapist Development Center provided a comprehensive and thorough review of the MSW curriculum. I liked that it was timed allowing me to pace it to my schedule. In addition, the ability to send questions via email and have them answered in a day or two was fantastic!

TDC was such a worthwhile investment. I was hesitant about the price but thought that it would be worth it, versus having to take to take the exam again and pay that fee. The biggest thing for me was the audio lectures - being able to listen to those and take notes at the same time really helped the material sink in. The quick studies and quizzes were also great. Getting good scores on the practice exams and listening to the Final Pep Talk really helped me feel confident going into the exam. I leaned in to attack the exam and it worked! I teared up when that PASS came onto the screen! So grateful that this is behind me now. Would strongly recommend TDC!!

I was originally scheduled to take my exam in April but had to reschedule due to Covid-19. I then started procrastinating and pushed the exam back even further. I finally decided at the end of July that I had to buckle down and not let this test scare me anymore. I started studying with the TDC and followed their schedule. I began to feel confident in my knowledge and felt better about taking the exam. On exam day I will admit I almost had a panic attack midway through and was able to calm myself down. I reassured myself that I had prepared and no matter the outcome it would be okay. When I was finished and saw PASS I started crying. I have received so much support and I am grateful for everyone who encouraged me along the way. I highly encourage anyone who is preparing to take any one of the exams to use TDC.

I started becoming anxious about studying over a year before I even submitted my hours and talked to everyone I could about what program to study with and the majority of them said hands down TDC. I am a bad test taker so I needed something to really adequately prepare me without adding to my anxiety. I studied sporadically once I submitted my hours and was waiting for my approval to test. When they started getting closer to processing my hours I started studying according to a schedule but still not super rigorous. When I got my approval I studied consistently for about 5 weeks according to how TDC says to study. I scored well on my mock exams but I was still nervous. However, I listened to the pep talk and decided to lean into the exam and go in with confidence. I finished in under 2 hours even with reviewing and when I saw the word PASS on the screen it took me a good 5 minutes to understand what it was saying. TDC ensured I was well prepared. A lot of what was covered in TDC wasn’t tested in my exam but I was still very prepared. The only thing I wish was different is I wish there were audios for each of the quick studies. I struggled to retain the info from those that didn’t have audios like the defense mechanisms and child development. However, I still passed and I am now an official LCSW and I contribute a lot of that to TDC so thank you!!!!!!

I used other study materials but nothing compares to the outline and materials provided. It puts you in the perfect mindset to take the test. I am recommending this to everyone I know.

I felt well prepared for this exam as a result following this study plan. The scores I earned on your practice exams were a good indicator; they were very close to my actual exam score! I appreciated the audio portions a lot, and listened to them several times while exercising! Thank you very much.

Using this program helped guide me through the several topics that are presented on the exam. Listening to the lectures provided me with a clear understanding of the material and made me feel confident when taking the exam.

Great course. Very organized and clear. Very grateful for how well it prepared me to pass my first time. Thanks very much!

This course helped me refresh on topics and gave me a new way to approach and think when tackling questions on the test! They gave a plethora of study sheets, practice quizzes, and mock exams which were extremely helpful! I especially loved the listening lectures which I would sit down and listen to with the handouts but also made it easy to listen to the lectures while driving from work or long distances. Everyone was also very responsive and provided detailed answers to my questions, when emailed. While I did have some test anxiety in the beginning, after completing the study material and based on my results on the mock exams I definitely felt more confident in my clinical skills and prepared to take the exam! Just to gauge how you’re doing, on the mock exams I got in the high 70s and on the actual exam I got in the high 80s, so I definitely think they prepare you well!
