I had previously taken the test using other study materials and failed the test by 2-4 points. After using the TDC study materials I passed the LCSW test on my 5th try. I scored a 109 and only needed 99 points to pass. This course has helped me to be successful and I am happy to be done with the testing process.

Thank you,

I have bad test anxiety and was terrified of tihs exam. I heard so many horror stories of people not passing and taking it multiple times. I'm currently in school for my Ph.D. in Social Work and there is no way I could go to school, work, be a mom and study for this exam. I knew I had to take and pass the exam during my summer break. TDC thoroughly prepared me, even those times during the exam I questioned how well I was doing I remember Amanda, Bethany and Heidi in my head as well as everything I learned from the program. I 'm so very excited and happy to say that I PASSED the test on my first time!!!!! Thank you so very much TDC. I would recommend this program to anyone!

Through studying the course material, I not only preparing for the ASWB exam, but I was able to strengthen my knowledge and skills that were applicable to my day to day duties as a social worker.

Though I've always been a good test taker and don't suffer from test anxiety, the idea of studying for the LCSW exam at 55 years old (just got my degree 2 years ago and have my BS is Forestry; long story) was overwhelming. I'd look at the list of KSA's and think "how on earth can I study all of those enough to remember them on exam day." On the Facebook page, LMSW/ LCSW Exam Study Group, quite a few people highly recommended TDC, and checking out the website convinced me that their teaching methods would be perfect for my old brain. The combination of audio, written information, lots of quizzes/tests was perfect and I always got prompt responses to my questions. The coaches also provide a lot of spot on tips to increase confidence and reduce worry.

Thank you so much for your study guide. I am so grateful for your help.

I knew that I studied like a mad dog this time., It was an intense 4 to 5 days that I spent in the library going over materials and Amanda's lectures in all topics which I've successfully transcribed long hard, I really put in hard effort. I also had support from my supervisor from my work who was willing to provide support to me even when I was on vacation study for this difficult exam. Responses from the clinicians in TDC has been really quick and on point with all the questions I had in regard to questions of the tests I've taken

I'm an excellent test-taker but the clinical exam still presented me with a mountain of anxiety. TDC broke everything down and the program is structured so that if you follow it, you WILL PASS!

My job depended on passing the LCSW exam the first time. The reason I picked TDC was due to the owner having a degree in the neuroscience of learning. It goes against my personality to select one model to totally depend upon, but the program made sense, so I decided to throw my trust in this program solely. I followed the program to the tee and tried to trust the process. The coaching staff is excellent, and the closed study group was awesome. I did the hard work and will take credit for that, but I do not believe I would have passed the first time without TDC. I would recommend this program of study to any of my colleagues or friends or strangers. It was well worth the investment of money! I passed!!!! Thank you, Amanda, and a special thanks to Heidi who is an excellent coach!

I failed the California L&E exam twice before passing....using a different prep course. A co-worker of mine used TDC and passed both the L&E and ASWB on her first try. So I decided to use TDC and so happy I did. It's a simply yet comprehensive system. Thank you TDC for helping me pass the ASWB Clinical exam on my first try!

TDC help me to improve my score from the first attempt by approximately 15% and enabled me to pass.
The study content was effective as was practicing test taking itself, including the use of the marking feature in the actual exam which allows you to go back and reassess questions. My only recommendation would be to make earlier use of test-taking practice including and emphasizing how to use the marking feature... it makes a world of difference psychologically. Getting stuck and feeling stuck is a death blow no matter how much you have prepared. The test was difficult. In my version of the test I required 99 questions answered correctly and I answered 106. But hey, I passed!
