Social Work Exam Prep Reviews
I passed the standard written and clinical vignette LCSW exam the first time using Therapist Development Center. Amanda researched study taking strategies and incorporated them into her program. I felt prepared taking both exams and would only recommend Therapist Development Center. Thank you Amanda! You are brilliant for developing such a thorough and "easy-to-use" program!
I would strongly recommend this program. The first time I took the exam I was not sure of how to go about studying so I went through various social work books and made flash cards; this did not prepare me the way I needed to be prepared. The Therapist Development Center's program organized my studying in a way that worked for me. In addition to that I had explanations for why an answer was the correct one which was such a help. Having the reason and explanation helped solidify my understanding better. Having a schedule and routine for preparing helped greatly with reducing my anxiety. The test techniques I learned were very helpful during the actual exam. This is cliche but I wish I had used this program the first time I took the exam.
I have a very busy life with four children and did not have a lot of time to study. Amanda's program was so easy and effective that I was able to prepare in a short amount of time and take the exam feeling very comfortable. I passed it the first time and as I was taking it I knew I was passing, and even finished 35 minutes early.
Amanda's conversational and relaxed style, along with her emphasis on common sense, suited my personality very well and it made the studying and the exam feel quite easy. Thank you Amanda!
I have had test anxiety since as long as I can remember having to take tests. The Therapist Development Center used expertise in the psychology of learning to help me realize that I could in fact pass this exam and without unnecessary anxiety or worries! I felt prepared and even excited to take the exam on test day because I knew I had taken all the necessary steps to do so. Thank you Amanda and the rest of the team for guiding me through this intimidating process!
Thank You TDC for the clear, concise and concrete way study for this exams. I took the first exam in April and did not pass. I waited the 180 days and jumped back in to studying for test one. My work place offered a test bank from Gerry and it did nothing but confuse me and lower my confidence. I quickly turned back to using TDC to hone in. I used the tools, managed my stress and passed. I turned my paper work in for the Vignette exam and got permission and took the test on November 24th and passed. The TDC material is so closely linked to the real test that all I had to do was remember the strategies and manage my anxiety. Thank you for the support and being with me until I passed!!
