This program was extremely effective in preparing me for what to study and for how to decipher the right answers to the LCSW exam questions. I highly recommend it to anyone taking the LCSW exam.
Getting my LCSW has been a goal since choosing this career, but I was dreading the test and was scared about where to even start studying. When a friend recommended TDC to me, I was relieved, and then I was even MORE relieved when I started the program and saw how comprehensive it is. I studied over the course of 10 weeks to spread the program out, and I was very confident going into the exam. The mock exams and audios were key in this process, as well as having the TDC team available for questions via email. I passed and felt more excited than anything going into this exam because I knew this program prepared me so well! Thank you so much to the TDC team!!
The TDC definitely helped to give me a starting point on how to begin studying for this exam. I was so overwhelmed and decided that the TDC would be an investment for my future, and I was correct. I passed my exam on the first attempt!
My journey to passing was not an easy one. On the second try I introduced Phil in the Gaps into my studying which was a terrible idea. Talk about turning me around. I feel like I was just too anxious on the first test and didn’t adequately study HOW to take the test. This time I was prepared for reasoning, ruling out and all my recall. I spent the day before this successful test going over all the lectures again so it was really fresh in my mind. I improved my score by 13 points. Thanks for sticking with me!
I passed on the first try with an 82%! Thanks TDC!
I am not a strong test taker by nature, so I was very nervous for this test. I am completely blown away with how prepared I felt sitting down for the test and answering those first few questions. I couldn't believe that I knew the answers immediately. Needless to say I passed with 15 points over what was needed. My supervisor told me that I scored higher than any other student she has supervised in the last few years. She is now going to recommend TDC to all of her supervisees. Thank you for taking the time to create this study prep. I firmly believe I only passed on the first attempt because of this course. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
As a side note, I found it very helpful to take a break at the 85 questions mark, and again at the 170 mark before circling back to my marked questions. The cough drop halfway through was the perfect sugar rush I needed to get my brain fired up again. Thank you for making these suggestions.
Great program. Highly recommended to pass the exam!
I passed my exam today! Lcsw-c in the state of Maryland. The key to this exam is learning how to answer the questions!! TDC covers all the knowledge …
I have been having the LCSW study material for 2 yrs and 5 months due to my baby being born early. I was planning on taking the exam when I was pregnant, but of course God had other plans.. The audio content was amazing. It work with my everyday life. I just continue to listen to the audio review the quick studies and continued to take the quizzes until I mastered it. The rationales were amazing when you do the exams that the website provides. If you focus on what Amanda and Beth suggest and you give all you got with this material provided, you will pass this test!! I am so grateful to God that I was able to pass on the 1st try. I am so elated. P.S. make sure you answer alot of questions a couple a week before the test and understand the rationale. First understand content, then focus on how to take the test.
What I particularly found helpful in this course, was the focus on developing a study strategy and focus on the reasoning questions (e.g. how to tackle the "first", "next", "best" types of questions. This was an area I was particularly weak in and continued to miss on other practice tests. What also differentiated this course from other study materials was the focus on the DSM - particularly the "DSM: What's the Difference" series. I felt VERY well versed in DSM after going through that. I truly believe this course is likely what gave me the edge to pass this exam on my first try. I had a lot of anxiety prior to this - and had put off taking this exam for a very long time because of that. This course helped me to overcome that and push forward and get this finally done.
