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.
Therapist Development Center assisted me in reviewing questions more closely. I learned how to identify relevant key points. I took the test with confidence and passed on the first attempt at my LMSW. I highly recommend the program. I will absolutely be using the program again when I'm ready to take my LCSW.
TDC gave me structure, confidence, and real understanding of the exam process.
The materials and support were excellent — I truly appreciate this program and plan to use it again to succeed.
TDC was by far the best study material I used. It broke down the information in a way that allowed me to truly understand what was being discussed. I would recommend TDC to anyone that is preparing for the LSW exam.
After failing my first attempt, I knew I needed a different approach. TDC completely changed how I studied. I actually felt calm walking into my exam this time! I passed my LMSW and will 100% be using TDC again when I go for my LCSW.
I loved the lectures and was able to listen to them several times while multitasking. I loved how for the DSM it was differentiating instead of just memorizing definitions etc.
Thanks to TDC for your help . Your audio on the 50 topics and quick studies helped me greatly. Thank you!
This study system was designed perfectly.
