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.
The Therapist Development Center was great! It had all the information I needed to pass in one convenient place and helped me go into the test feeling confident and prepared. Thank you for all your hard work!
I had 90 days to prepare for this exam and the first 30 were the hardest because I felt like I was all over the place. I had study material from everywhere and it was exhausting and overwhelming. I remembered a coworker told me about TDC and I bought the program and printed out everything and still felt stuck until I realized TDC had audio lectures and that was a game changer. In my free time I was listening to these lectures at work, in the car, cooking, sleeping, and even when showering. Every single time I struggled I went back and replayed everything to make sure I understood it and could explain it to my friends who aren’t in the field. My clinical skills have also gotten so much better too. When I went into my test, it was the calmest I’d ever been (I usually have bad test anxiety) and I literally heard Amanda’s voice when it came to choosing answers and why. Thank you TDC!!! I’ll be back when it’s time for my clinical exam!!
I am so grateful that I passed this challenging exam the first time!! I needed a score of 98 to pass and I received a score of 134. I was very anxious before beginning the course because I have a lot of test anxiety and I felt so overwhelmed by the vast amount of information that I needed to study for. This course really assisted me in getting myself, and my brain, organized and focused on what I needed to know to pass the first time. Besides being able to pass the exam, I also felt like this course helped me to consolidate all of the content, and knowledge, from my social work masters program and I learned a lot during the study process. This course really helped to build my confidence and sense of professionalism! Thank you!
This was a game changer. I felt productive each time I studied and felt very prepared by the time I took the practice exam and exam. 10/10.
I loved the audio of the rationale and the practice questions were very helpful.
TDC material helped me until I passed my exam. The material was easy to study and understand. Am glad I used it. It helped breaking down the questions to find the right answer.
Thank you for your help with passing this exam. Your content was amazing and helped guided me through.
