I am horrible test taker and English is my second language, german native here. I was worried and doubted my ability to pass on the first try, I did TDCs program three times and passed with flying colors. I prepared myself based on the guidelines in the study prep and it helped me soothe my anxiety. I used other studying book materials before trying TDC but it wasn't helpful, no information was sticking. Anyways, it's a great program!! I can only highly recommend it, especially for those who grow up with a different language.
I came across TDC soon after starting my MSW journey in 2020. I saved the information for future use especially because of the discounts for military and veterans. I am in my last quarter of school and will graduate next month in February. I requested for the military discount after I had my exam date scheduled and heard back within an appropriate time frame. I liked the audio part of the program as I was able to listen to the information while driving. I also liked the anecdotal stories that helped me remember the information. TDC study material was simple and to the point. I purchased another study material which was a physical book and found it was very overwhelming with too much information. The TDC mock exam was very close to and indicative of the ASWB board practice and actual exam. I would definitely recommend TDC to everyone. First time to pass the licensure exam and passed before the conferral of my degree. Thank you to TDC. I will be back for the LCSW Exam.
Hi TDC Family, Today I passed my LMSW! When I first began this road with TDC, I scored a 58% on the Top 50 pretest. I was mortified. Having graduated last May, I knew I wasn't ready to take the exam, so I procrastinated until a recent job offer was contingent upon my successful passing. So, seven weeks ago, I started with another test prep company, which I won't name. But, I quickly realized I would need a different teaching method than just utilizing acronyms. Realizing that I was running out of time, I remembered TDC as a suggestion from my professor. So, I committed to the investment. After my first pass-through of the materials, I scored 64% on the DSM 5 exam, 86% on the Values and Ethics, and 82% on the crisis. Then, I scored a 72% on Mock exam one and a 74% on mock exam two. As outlined by the study plan, I repeated the course, and my scores increased to 86%, 86%, 90%, 90%, and 88%, respectively. I ended the course scoring an 82% on the final mock exam. If you're CONSIDERING purchasing this course, stop it! Just buy the course and be glad that you did. In six weeks, I went from "Questioning my ability to successfully pass the exam to walking into the testing center this morning feeling confident and prepared that I knew the material and was ready to pass!" Thank you so much.
I am so grateful that I did not give up. I will always look back on this experience for encouragement!
Passed my test on the first try using nothing but TDC as study material. Enough said!
I highly recommend TDC for studying for the LMSW exam. It was really helpful for me to understand how the test wanted me to think about the information. When I took the pretest in early March I got a 60 which kind of freaked me out, but today I got 30 questions over the passing grade. I took a one day prep course through my university and did all of the steps of the TDC prep to prepare to pass. Something that I found really helpful was the day of recommendations like taking a break to have a snack half way through. I remembered that she said that I would start to feel anxious but it was actually a blood sugar thing so I took the break and had some fruit and some orange juice to fuel me to go back and finish the second half of the test.
I loved the structure TDC provided. Amanda's advice of taking her to the exam room and asking yourself "What would Amanda do" really worked for me. I owe my success to TDC. Thank you so much, Amanda.
I have scored higher using your program than any other program I have used.
It was such a nice and easy process thanks to your program.
Thank you Therapist Development Center for your study material. I am a macro student and did not feel confident in testing until I started reviewing and quizzing myself using your test prep material. In twelve weeks I was ready to take the exam! I passed today with 117 questions. Thank you again.
