Social Work Exam Prep Reviews
I passed my LCSW clinical vignette exam today! THANK YOU!!!! I have to say that your study material and using the frames were the BEST information that I have received. I failed the first time and now I absolutely know why! Simply by learning the frames and USING them to frame the questions on the exam served me 100 % better than going over and over the AATBS questions and becoming frustrated over the answers. No more inferring-no more guessing what they wanted from me! I listened to what you said- memorized the frames-applied them and leaned in. No second guessing! Best money I have spent! Thank you! Blessings!
I spoke with you back in July, but I finally purchased your material on 10/19/2012. I am happy to report that I passed the LCSW clinical vignette exam on 11/14/12 (my second try after purchasing and using GG), Yay!!! All I can say is I wish I knew about your material sooner as it would have saved me a lot of money and time. But I am a true believer that everything happens when it is supposed to happen. I really appreciate the fact that your material gave me the exact strategies I needed to pass w/o the fillers. Thank you so much! You are awesome!
I just wanted to tell you that I finally cleared my 1st exam using your study methods, and would like to sincerely thank you. I tried AATBS the first time, Berkeley the second time, and the Therapist Development Center the third time, and all you said was true. For the first time when I read the questions they made sense, and I realized I did not need all those thick books to study, the thick materials were just overwhelming and slowing my progress. I look forward to studying the second exam with you, and God bless.
By the way, thank you so much for this program. You make me excited to study. Was always jealous of people who'd say that, but this time I am one of THEM! I took the exam and failed by one point. After several months of cursing this exam, I got on the ball and started the TDC handouts. I wanted to use the TDC program from the beginning, but my husband persuaded me not to since other programs cost more and come with books. (So in his mind they MUST be better). So wrong! But, he's an attorney, a convincing man, and always with my best interest so I went with BTA not knowing and hoping it would work. AWFUL! I've never been more upset with a test prep company in my life. Now that I am following your program, I am happy again. Feel like I have an edge since I've already taken the test and recognize many of the test questions you have on your program. So glad you are out there, helping those that are smart social workers, but misled and misguided. I just needed to stop memorizing and forcing recall on an exam that doesn't require that. Who knew? :)
Mahalo nui loa! May God bless you!!!
Working with the TDC was great. Prior to taking her course I had taken a packaged LCSW seminar over a year ago and yet never registered for my first test, (not to mention spent a significant amount of money doing it)!! I think my hesitation in taking the test was largely because the previous seminar gave so much information it almost seemed impossible to absorb. It took an incredible amount of time just to strategize on how to tackle the material…A year and a few months later I felt I was finally ready and passed the first exam. In preparation for the second exam however, I knew I could not wait another year, I needed someone who knew how to teach, motivate and present the most concise material to get me through. My co-worker referred me to the TDC. I contacted them on the phone and by the end of our conversation I felt totally confident that I could tackle the second exam in 6 weeks. I quickly signed up for her courses and just 2 weeks beyond my initial timeline I had passed my second exam. The TDC is all about the “test”. In referring them to my co-workers I explain their approach as “trimming all the fat and getting straight to the meat”. They gave very practical and concise approaches to taking the test. They provided the motivation and support I needed to get it done and get it done quickly. Thanks TDC.
