LCSW

The study system is phenomenal!! I highly, highly recommend this program. I passed my Illinois LCSW exam a few days ago and I could not have felt more prepared for test day. I absolutely appreciated hearing the audio rationales for the course topics while also taking down notes. I completed your program twice, as it was recommended. I also completed all of the tests twice, except the final exam which you can take once. I purchased a three inch binder and tabs to organize the information. I scored a 117 on the final exam and that's the score I received on the ASWB LCSW exam! When I arrived at the testing center, I was very nervous but sat down and wrote on the dry erase booklet a few tips I learned from the program and looked at the booklet quite frequently when I needed reassurance. I remember Amanda saying frequently "You are well prepared to pass this test" and that's what I wrote down. I also wrote down the number one hints to consider when thinking of each scenario, as it was also frequently stated in the audio lectures (i.e child abuse, elder abuse,msuicidality, substance use, domestic violence, and medical issue). Each question, I thought about those hints before reading the answers then chose from the answer set. It seemed to work well for me and it helped me to think about what the answer might be before looking at the answers. I previously used the NASW study system and this system was by far the most helpful in helping me to pass the exam. Thanks so much!! I am so grateful that I stumbled upon your system. I highly recommend the Therapist Development Center study system!!
