Social Work Exam Prep Reviews

Kimberly A. Miller,

I used the earplugs and tuned out the world. I focused on the questions and read each one just like I did in the TDC practice tests and mock exams. I paced myself in preparing by making sure I highlighted key words when I studied the rationales or listened to the audio. I used the tests to go back over the ones I missed and to review ones I got right. I didn't spend as much time on the ones I got right as I did with the ones I got wrong. I went over everything on the 2nd Mock Exam and took it the morning of the exam and I took the 1st one the night before. I just paced myself and went with my gut after eliminating answers to 2 choices then one. You just have to know the law and ethics well. I really implore all applicants to spend the investment to take the prep courses with TDC. Thank you all. Will be preparing for the Clinical Exam now.

Very helpful program. Passed with 86% :) needed 98 correct to pass and got 129.

I went through the study program twice and there were things that I missed or didn't pick up the first time. Going through it twice gave me more confidence going into the exam.

I took the test a few weeks ago and passed, answering 126 questions correctly (98 correct answers were a passing grade). I would recommend this program to anyone studying for the clinical exam. I was especially pleased with the organization and the study schedule, because there is a large amount of material to be covered and it can feel really overwhelming. I am very impressed with the tapes, especially the DSM-5 discussion and the ethics lecture. My advice: Go through the entire study schedule and repeat if you are feeling shaky on some areas. For the last week of my review, I listened to the Top 50 Topics lectures again and reviewed all of the quizzes and tests, making sure that I understood the rationales for the answers. The review really boosted my confidence and I went into the exam very calm and convinced that I was going to pass. To be honest, I thought that the two Full Mock Tests were actually more difficult than the real exam! Much thanks to Bethany for patiently answering all my questions!

I attempted this exam 3 times before through ASWB study guide, independent compilation of study materials, etc. This program not only supported in improving my examination skills, but it truly added to my clinical foundation and overall skills. Best curriculum I have encountered and honestly would pay for an annual review of this material if I could get a CEU for it. Thank you!!! Extremely supportive through the entire learning process. Eternally Grateful!!!
