Compared to other programs TDC has all of the info you need in one spot and I loved that. I they have quite a few podcasts that you can listen to, if you are an audio learner.
Thank you TDC for helping me pass on first try! Excellent program and will recommend to others!
I submitted my hours back in October 2019 and was approved to take the exam in Feb 2020. I scheduled the exam for May 27th 2020 prior to hearing about COVID. I tried studying and working full time, but eventually I relented and took about 3.5 weeks off from work to devote to studying and self care. I studied about 4 hours a day. Some days, I just decided to not study at all because I needed a break. But having a plan helped me keep on track. I listened to the TDC lectures, took copious notes, and went through the study system step by step. I quizzed myself every few days and boned up on my weak spots by reviewing the terms and concepts. Given that I was testing with the COVID still in full swing, I practiced the full mock exams with a mask on and I scored a 76/72 on my final mocks. I knew I was ready. Honestly, the mock exam questions didn’t really resemble actual exam. However, TDC prepared me to “attack the test.” Even on questions that I was stuck on, I was usually able to eliminate 1-2 answers and keep the momentum going. The pep talk prior to the exam was also helpful to reassure me and recap the test taking strategies. The actual exam was mostly based on reasoning and TDC helped provide the tools I needed to figure it out. I highly recommend TDC. It’s the ONLY test preparation you’ll need for the ASWB exam.
Thank you TDC!!! I used the Exam Study Plan and went through the content twice as suggested. The last week I focused on things that I felt I needed to focus on after taking the full mock exam. This program worked! I passed on my first try!
Thank you TDC for your support of Veterans! I was able to pass the clinical exam on my first attempt!
My fellow veteran recommended this study system to me and I am I was so grateful that she did. Up she did I had been studying here and there with a hodge piece of material that well meaning people had thrown at me....was a bit overwhelming. This program is very regimented and leave everything out including your schedule for studying which I really appreciated. Even though my exam focus primarily on subjects outside of my medical social work practice I felt very prepared to answer their questions. I would not hesitate to recommend this training program to anyone. Thank you Therapist Development Center!!!
TDC gave me the confidence to pass! I used they strategies to attack the test! They worked! Follow the system and you will pass! Now I wish they had this information available to support Supervisors !
I am so thankful for TDC. I only had 10 days to study for the exam. I devoted time each day and was able to make it through the entire program two times before taking my test. I passed the test today with an 81% and I have TDC to thank! This program makes the content interesting and easy to retain. It felt like a good friend was giving me advice and strategies to help me pass. I can't stop spreading the word about this amazing program!
This program was rigorous yet prepared me well for the test. It provided the guidance needed and concise knowledge per area of study to focus on. The practice quizzes and mock exams felt nearly exact to the real exam. I tried many other routes for peace of mind; other dense materials I paid for through attending seminars and free online material and videos do not compare to the Therapist Development Center. I passed the clinical exam on the first try after completing their program.
I PASSED!!!!!! I took the exam Friday May 22, 2020 and passed with the help of TDC!! I took the test in May 18 and failed by 5 points and then had to postpone taking it again due to having a baby; however, when I signed back up to take it I researched other methods of studying because the Apgar book just seemed like it had WAY too much information. I came across TDC and I am soooooooo glad I did. I wouldn't of passed without this study course. The material in the top 50 topics was spot on and Amanda's reasoning as to how to get to the right answers are great. I took her in the room with me while taking the test. I will say one thing that helped me - I was already done with all the other materials for the course - was that I listened to the top 50 topics the morning before the exam and it for sure helped me. On my test there were about 5 questions that came up that I heard in the top 50 topics lecture, especially when Amanda was just talking about "you may see this or the test may ask you that." It was fresh on my mind going into to the test the following morning. I am so grateful for all of the coaches!!! Words cannot describe how I felt when I saw the PASS on the screen, I was crying with excitement lol. Heidi was a HUGE help, I would email her questions and the detailed responses were an added bonus to clarify things. Thank you, thank you, thank you TDC for being there with me to pass the LCSW exam !!!! I will recommend this to EVERYONE I know getting ready for it.
