Social Work Exam Prep Reviews
This program is so awesome! The material and support that it provides is worth every penny. I was able to finally pass my exam on the 3rd attempt. I failed previously and the program was extended for me with no question, which I really appreciate. The coaching component and phone calls really helped with questions that I had, as well as boosting my overall confidence. The materials are straight to the point and prepares you as best as possible for the exam. Thank you TDC!
I want to thank Therapist Development Center for creating a thorough program hitting every major topic with detail giving me structure to my study time. I have terrible test anxiety, but I completed the program and am proud to say "I passed the LCSW first time!!" I felt so prepared with the quick studies, quizzes, and half/full mock exams, which gave amazing practice and a great understanding of how a question could be worded. The best piece of advice... "Don't change an answer unless you have an AHHH moment and remember put them in order. The best or most important answer isn't necessarily the first step. I would recommend this program to others preparing to take the LCSW exam.
What I liked the most was the organization of the study program. TDC made sure everything was covered, and I did not have to worry about what to cover for the exam. I loved the audio lectures and the helpful hints for remembering terms and information, and the reminders were sooooo helpful for remembering to start where the client is. Multiple questions asked what to do FIRST, and I was able to choose answers related to client perspective. I also liked the hints about imagining the clients were with me in the room, or if I was staffing with my own team. I thought, wait, I know this stuff. I really felt confident going in and I loved how Amanda said keep your head in the game and tolerate uncertainty!!! It was great coaching. Oh I almost forgot... after flagging some of my answers I revisited them and applied the "Aha" response. I only changed 1 because I really had missed a hugely important piece of the stem, which stated the social worker was NEW. I had missed it and my answer changed because of it. I'm on cloud 9 and even though I never want to test again, if I had to, I would use this study material.
I took the test for the 3rd time. I had other materials to study from, but I missed by 1-3 points. My colleagues told me they have been using TDC and passed the exam for the first time taking it. I tried and it helped. I reviewed the true and false questions (2x) and the final mock exams a few days before the exam. It really helped me to summarize what I learned in the program. When I took the test, the scenarios were still fresh. When the proctor gave me the results I was nervous. When I flipped the page I saw “congratulations!” I was overjoyed and in tears. I asked the proctor, "can I hug you?" She said no. I saw another man who finished his test and he gave me fist thump gestures a few times and congratulated me! Thank you TDC! I am looking forward to purchasing your National LCSW Clinical program.
TDC study materials were all I needed to pass this exam. As I was going into the exam, I felt confident that I would pass the Clinical exam, because I felt prepared. As I was taking the exam, I felt that all questions were related to all information covered by TDC. I am so glad I decided to purchase this study program! I passed on my first try! Thank You Heidi for all your support.
