I am horrible test taker and English is my second language, german native here. I was worried and doubted my ability to pass on the first try, I did TDCs program three times and passed with flying colors. I prepared myself based on the guidelines in the study prep and it helped me soothe my anxiety. I used other studying book materials before trying TDC but it wasn't helpful, no information was sticking. Anyways, it's a great program!! I can only highly recommend it, especially for those who grow up with a different language.

I came across TDC soon after starting my MSW journey in 2020. I saved the information for future use especially because of the discounts for military and veterans. I am in my last quarter of school and will graduate next month in February. I requested for the military discount after I had my exam date scheduled and heard back within an appropriate time frame. I liked the audio part of the program as I was able to listen to the information while driving. I also liked the anecdotal stories that helped me remember the information. TDC study material was simple and to the point. I purchased another study material which was a physical book and found it was very overwhelming with too much information. The TDC mock exam was very close to and indicative of the ASWB board practice and actual exam. I would definitely recommend TDC to everyone. First time to pass the licensure exam and passed before the conferral of my degree. Thank you to TDC. I will be back for the LCSW Exam.

Hi TDC Family, Today I passed my LMSW! When I first began this road with TDC, I scored a 58% on the Top 50 pretest. I was mortified. Having graduated last May, I knew I wasn't ready to take the exam, so I procrastinated until a recent job offer was contingent upon my successful passing. So, seven weeks ago, I started with another test prep company, which I won't name. But, I quickly realized I would need a different teaching method than just utilizing acronyms. Realizing that I was running out of time, I remembered TDC as a suggestion from my professor. So, I committed to the investment. After my first pass-through of the materials, I scored 64% on the DSM 5 exam, 86% on the Values and Ethics, and 82% on the crisis. Then, I scored a 72% on Mock exam one and a 74% on mock exam two. As outlined by the study plan, I repeated the course, and my scores increased to 86%, 86%, 90%, 90%, and 88%, respectively. I ended the course scoring an 82% on the final mock exam. If you're CONSIDERING purchasing this course, stop it! Just buy the course and be glad that you did. In six weeks, I went from "Questioning my ability to successfully pass the exam to walking into the testing center this morning feeling confident and prepared that I knew the material and was ready to pass!" Thank you so much.

Based on the latest ASWB exam's low passing rates for certain groups and ages, I was not expecting to pass on my first try. I was an older non-traditional student. I searched for study guides to help me and avail of my college’s prep course. I wanted something to complement my learning and through Facebook searches, many testers agreed that TDC was preferable. I ordered the program but did not use it right away. I tried another program because I thought I would get personal help, but that was unsuccessful and very expensive. I realized something was amiss with the way I was studying and turned to TDC program. After taking their baseline test and listening to the rationales, I understood the process immediately. They have a great way of connecting the dots to help people learn the helping profession holistically. Most of all, I retained the information and was able to recall it for the test and in real life. I felt confident. I wasted money on other programs that did not fit my learning style but TDC fits all learning styles. I was also able to ask questions and someone got in touch with me within a reasonable time frame. Thank you, TDC, for the lessons, mini-exams, and organization. 

TDC was a fantastic program. !!!!! Gracias!

I had taken the exam 3 times and finally passed on my 4th. I am so thankful for TDC breaking down the topics and helping me study. I passed! Thank you TDC!!

TDC is a great program and I definitely recommend it. I felt with the audio and visual I was able to get a better understanding of the the concept.

I am so grateful for the study prep that the Therapist Development Center provided! All of the content was very thorough and they provide you with a timeline of how to study to help stay on track and not overload yourself. I have only taken the exam once before without the help of TDC, and I can say I saw a vast difference in my preparation with the help of TDC. I was able to pass this time with flying colors. The handouts were straightforward, and I loved how it gave space (also use your own scratch paper!) to take extra notes on the topics that were discussed in the audios. The rationales provided on the mock quizzes and exams were helpful in hearing both what was right and what was wrong. I cannot thank my coworker enough for sharing this website with me and appreciate all the assistance that TDC provides to help you pass! Thank you again!!

Passing the LMSW exam was a crucial step in my career, and I’m so grateful for Therapy Development Center (TDC) for helping me achieve it! The materials were comprehensive and broken down in a way that made it easy to understand even the trickiest concepts. The practice exams mirrored the real test and boosted my confidence, while the audio lectures were perfect for studying on the go. The TDC team’s support and encouragement really made a difference—I couldn’t have done it without them! I highly recommend TDC to anyone preparing for the LMSW exam!

TDC provided me with the confidence and structure I needed to pass my exam on my third and final attempt. In the past, I had explored various study methods, but none were effective; they often left me feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about my ability to succeed. TDC's approach not only clarified the material but also helped me build a solid foundation of knowledge. With their guidance, I felt empowered and prepared, ultimately leading to my success. I can't thank TDC enough for transforming my study experience!
