This was my first time taking the clinical exam. I was really overwhelmed with all the information out there. I had a co-worker who used TDC to pass after being unsuccessful. The only additional material I used was the ASWB practice exam 2 weeks prior to the test. I felt pretty confident going into the test and followed all the recommendations with the breaks etc. I cannot thank you all enough! This was a big hurdle in my career and I passed on my first try! I actually did a lot better than I thought I would. Thank you!

This system made the Clinical exam seem much more approachable, because they literally tell you how to approach each type of question on the exam. With all the pressure to pass, I was pretty nervous, but on test day I was ready and confident to, "Attack the test!". Thank you for what you do!

Thank you for this program. I felt supported all the way. This program allowed me to focus and study in an organized way that was so helpful. I especially appreciated the follow up from when I didn't pass previously.
Thank you Amanda and everyone!.

TDC is the only study program you will need.

After using TDC and taking the exam to day for the third time, i felt totally prepared. I gained and updated knowledge, and i also learned ho to take the exam. What to look for and break the questions down. I feel with out using TDC, i would not have prepared to pass this exam.

After failing this test twice over 10 years ago I avoided it like the plague and decided to finally tackle it again! I was extremely nervous, but the program really had me feeling prepared. I did the 8-week version. I didn't feel prepared after just 5 weeks. When I took the test, I could hear Amanda in my head as I was answering questions, helping me decipher between all good answer choices. Having solid materials presenting in a manageable way was invaluable. I highly recommend this course.

The audio tapes were crucial to my learning style.

I took the test a few different times and each time, my score improved. TDC definitely supported me through this journey. I appreciate Heidi so much because a week before my test I completed the practice exam from ASWB and I was not showing much improvement. I reached out for support and Heidi got back to me immediately. She answered all my questions and continued to respond quickly. Her responses were well thought out and ultimately helped me improved my thought process and how I should maneuver through various questions. Thank you so much for all of your support !

Great tool! Appreciated the breakdown of the questions and answers. Passed the first time!

I was very discouraged registering for the LCSW exam ....again. I had taken it 3 times before and I wanted to give it one last shot before I completely gave up. I searched out study guides, and found out about TDC. Some people recommended reading a book, but I know myself, and reading dos not help me absorb the material. I need to have someone tell me as I read. This course was excellent for that. This is a hard test. While you need to know all the recall info, you do need to know that info to apply it to clinical situations, not to regurgitate it. That was the hold up for me from before. I tried to memorize so much stuff, and it didn't really help. I really liked the way the study courses were lined out. I loved the planning guide.I started TDC with about 8 weeks before my exam. I studied 4-5 nights a week and when I took my practice exams, I didn't use any materials. I loved that your score came right up and I didn't have to guess how many points I had or needed.
The tips about not getting hung up (because it may be one of the 20 that don't count) and about not second guessing were great. When I did my last mock, I thought about it that way. I didn't go back on more than about 3 questions and I didn't change any answer.
In summary, it is a great program. It made sense. The study guides were so helpful and made me realize what I knew and what I didn't. I would recommend it to anyone, however DO IT BEFORE THE FIRST TIME! Don't wait to fail 3 times like I did! Get it first. It is worth every penny!
And, don't bother with asking the testing center about juice, fruit or food. The answer is unequivocally no. And that's something to take up with ASWB.
Thank you for everything. And to Heidi, thank you for always answering so promptly.
