I used TDC to prepare for the California LCSW Standard Written Exam. I passed on my first try and felt that TDC truly prepared me for the exam. I love the way TDC organizes the material in "bite-size" amounts. I went from feeling overwhelmed and hopeless before using Amanda’s material to feeling confident and prepared after using her material. I had talked with friends who had huge books and binders of material to review from other study companies and that just seemed daunting. Luckily a friend recommended TDC. I followed her study plan and took 8 weeks to study (repeating the material twice and some sections 3 times). It was something I could handle, even with all my other responsibilities as a wife & mother and working two jobs. I love Amanda’s audios and her down-to-earth approach to the lectures. You really feel like you are in supervision with someone you know and trust. Amanda's strategies to passing are right on cue, and I believe that the strategies are the key to passing the exam. However, be prepared, it is true... during the exam, you will feel like you are bombing the test! I felt like I was going to see a big fat FAIL at the end. The test is tricky. However, I applied all of the strategies and believe that is the only reason I passed on my first try. I recommend TDC to everyone I know!
