I contribute my passing and learning of clinical content and test skills 100% to TDC. I passed on my first attempt which was huge for me as the process of getting here took over 5 years. I felt comfortable and confident going in and during the test! The coaching was extremely helpful as well. After taking the first full mock I received a 65% which of course was lower than I wanted. I reached out for guidance as I aced the three other quick studies. The guidance I received on writing down the role of the social worker and the specific problem was a game changer! By doing that for every question I jumped from a 65 to 77% on the first full mock and higher on the second. I can't thank TDC enough. Now, to celebrate!!

I found this program to be exceptional, where it had far surpassed my expectations. Not only was I confident during the exam where I did not stress about having to take the entire 4 hours to complete the LCSW clinical, but I had found myself facing quite the dilemma when I had only had the chance to register for this course approximately 12 days prior to the exam which I had scheduled approximately 2 or 3 days prior to registering for this course. I had the chance to complete everything except the mock exams so I did not even get to complete those; so I was definitely nervous going in to the testing center on exam day. There was not much I could do about it as due to my work schedule being full time and scheduling my exam on short notice, I was only able to take off 3 full days prior to the exam in order to dedicate that time tlo studying. So I pretty much completed the entire program with the exception of the mock exams within a 4 to 5 day time period. I highly recommend this course and for anyone who is questioning whether or not it is worth their time( if you were like me and you scheduled your exam super last minute and with a very limited time to study, I 100% recommend this course and advise you not to be intimidated by the course outline and the 5 weeks that it is supposed to take to complete this course as the material is presented in such a way that you are repetitively presented the same information from various different perspectives in a repetitive manner where it makes it super easy to recall. This program is worth every dollar spent and if I could go back I would not have have done anything differently. A ginormous THANKS to the therapist development center. Not only did I achieve a passing score ON MY FORST ATTEMPT, but my correct ANSWERS far exceeded the requirement for passing. Thank you so so much tothe amazing individuals who took their time to not only present the information in a way where it where it was easy to follow for even the most stressed and overwhelmed of us last minute scheduled test takers. This program was truly a godsend and I have recommended it to several colleagues since passing my exam on November 4th.

Your course was straight forward and easy to use. I have used other books and honestly it doesn’t cover how to personally be ready for this exam.

This course works!!! Trust the system and you will PASS : )

The TDC program helped me tremendously. I didn't know where to start or what to study which became discouraging. Understanding how to answer the questions is what got me through the exam. The TDC questions are in a sense more straight forward; however, reading the rationales is what really helped me. Knowing the material is just as important as understanding what the questions is asking. To add, preparing yourself to sit for the four hour duration of the exam will help as well. As far as scoring, I averaged a score of 75% on the TDC exams and passed the ASWB exam with a 74%. A pass is a PASS! Thanks TDC

TDC was beyond helpful and kept me on track and organized. Once I began my test, I knew I would pass because the format was the same as TDC, and everything looked familiar. The familiarity fulled my confidence throughout the test. Thank you, thank you!

I passed my exam on the first try.

One and done, baby! It was 3 1/2 years between the time I graduated grad school and took my exam. I can without a doubt say had it not been for TDC that I would’ve had absolutely no idea where to begin to start studying, and I don’t think I would’ve gotten anywhere near close to where this program takes you- beyond preparing for this exam.

TDC genuinely helped me realize how in control of my life that I am. I was sexually assaulted 3 weeks before my exam and I truly didn’t know if I was going to be able to sit for it. Trying to keep it together and get back on track would’ve otherwise been so overwhelming if not impossible without this program. I worried about my ability to focus during my text but throughout my entire exam the TDC recordings guided me every step of the way.

The way the program is designed in terms of scheduling makes it easy to hold yourself accountable, it allowed me to sharpen my self-discipline, and equipped me with knowledge and guidance I will need in my career. Completing this program and passing my exam gave me confidence beyond my role as a clinician. Thank you, so much.

I'm a career changer. I started over from a finance career returning to school for a second bachelors then master’s degree later in life. I entered clinical supervision 3 months before the pandemic shutdown and forged ahead with determination and sheer will power and was able to complete my supervision in the required time. However, because of the pandemic I did not have consistent supervision and moved group practices twice. So, by the time I was nearing approval to take the licensure exam I lacked confidence in my knowledge, skills and abilities as a clinical social worker. This program was recommended to me by my supervisor. After purchasing I listened to all the lessons multiple times. I printed the fact sheets and reviewed them each night before bed for about a month. When I took the practice tests my scores were very low. Therefore, I was convinced I was not ready to take the exam and wanted to postpone it. But fate had a different plan. Due to the pandemic restrictions the next appointment would be months away. So, I stuck with it and kept reviewing and practicing the test preps. I did take the ASWB practice test once about a week before my test date. Same scenario, low score. The day of the exam I woke up at 4:00 AM and could not go back to sleep. By the time I arrived at the test center I was already exhausted and even more in doubt of my passing. I took 2 hours and 45 minutes to get through the exam and passed with 122 correct answers (the report said 102 were needed to pass). The only thing I can say is thank you to Therapist Development Center. The material was challenging enough to me that when I took the test, I thought the questions were too easy. I kept thinking I must be missing something. I was in disbelief when I saw "Pass" on the screen. I am eternally grateful for this study system.

This course was very helpful. I liked the range of ways the information was presented so it allowed me to study whenever I had time (aside from dedicated study time). I took the quick notes everywhere with me and replayed lectures in the car while I was driving. The biggest help was the rationals for right and wrong answers on the mocks, this really helped drive home how to process the questions. Passed my first time and got 120 questions right!
