Course Reviews
I LOVED TDC. It helped me focus and have a sense of control over the vastness of the material. I felt held and confident that I am supported. Since I already did law and ethics with TDC I knew that Amanda's coaching was working for me. I actually did hear her voice in the exam, and I felt like I was able to internalize her thoughts and perception and utilize it in the test. I did pass so for me, this really worked.
TDC is the way to go!! I cannot tell you how grateful I am for being able to utilize this amazing program!! I passed the first time!! Follow the Program...listen to Amanda and you will pass!! Good Luck!!
I really appreciated the mock exams, they really prepared you for the test. Listening to Amanda was like she was right in the room with you. The program was very thorough and I have recommended to all of my colleagues. Thank you for helping me get through this. Also listening to the pep talk before I took my test really helped me, as I did not go back and change any of my answers, This was a great experience and well worth the money.
TDC is an exceptional study program!! Everything you need to know for the clinical exam, TDC covers and more!! What I have enjoyed most about the study program is how structured, concise, encouraging, and well-thought out each study topic is presented. Before studying, I felt I needed to brush up on my theories. TDC does such an excellent job, going over each theory. On the day of my exam, I felt completely prepared when it came to theory questions. I knew what key terms and concepts to look for when answering the questions. I would suggest, review "test strategies" a day before the exam, this was also helpful. Thank you TDC for this wonderful study program-I PASSED on my first attempt, not to mention during a world pandemic, fires, while also raising three young children. If I can do it, you can do it too!! Feels good to be licensed after a 7 year journey!!
I passed the clinical exam yesterday and I would not have passed without TDC.
The test isn't compatible with the way my brain processes information. The combination of TDC's program and my accommodations for extra time made my passing possible.
So grateful.
I have used the TDC program for both MFT Law and Ethics 2016 and Clinical Exam 2020, I loved the program!
Amanda was definitely in my head during my test taking experience. Coach Asya responded to my email questions promptly, Thank you TDC, I am now a LMFT!!
TDC had me very well-prepared. The test was hard, but TDC mocks were harder. I had a helpful coaching session with Asya. I spent my summer with Amanda and TDC and I am very thankful!
This test prep was wonderful! I just took my clinical exam yesterday and passed the first time! I learned so much and was surprised to also find that I knew so much already having been practicing for 5 years as an AMFT. I found the organization to be wonderful for me, as I love structure. So having a set schedule that was already made worked for me. I also appreciated the flexibility of the schedule for those weeks I needed to make adjustments. Taking this course twice, which I recommend, made such a positive impact in my retention and confidence in the material, and my skills as a test taker. The mock exams were so similar to the actual test, which helped me while taking my exam because I did so much practice. It was still a challenge of course, but because I knew how the questions were formed I was able to press on through the exam and focus on managing my anxiety. I did see small errors throughout the mocks and lectures in regards to grammar and formatting, as well as saying a specific answer was correct, but then the wrong answer was read aloud. This was so minimal that it did not make a huge impact overall, and if you are paying attention you can catch those times and it doesn't impact things too much. I used the positive self talk and mantra throughout the exam and I even wrote it on my scratch paper! Overall, I really appreciate this program and I have recommended it to so many colleagues. Thank you for creating this test prep and I am so proud I passed!
For anyone considering this study material, I believe you'll find yourself very prepared on test day! The test is difficult, but this curriculum breaks down different questions and areas piece by piece so you'll have a good framework for responding appropriately. I highly recommend following the well thought out study structure, you won't regret your investment!
In 2015 I decided to become a therapist and I'm so happy TDC helped me take the last step towards obtaining clinical license. Asya was great, she was responsive when I was having doubts. Its honestly the hardest time to take a test right now and I don't think any other testing site offers a personal touch in the same TDC does with their curriculum/support.
TDC was a great program for preparing me for the clinical exam! I passed on the first try and felt the test strategies really helped me work through each question. The mock exams were excellent and I appreciated being able to take several so I felt prepared! Thanks TDC!
Very helpful. I found TDC over prepared me for the exam as I thought the exam was easier, which made it less stressful for me.
I could not have passed without TDC. This program was everything. It gave me a realistic, doable timeline and structure. The mock exams were very challenging -- it made the actual exam less intimidating!
My coach, Asya, was excellent. Every time I sent a question she replied within 24 hrs. Her response were always very detailed and helpful.
I went into the test feeling confident and honestly felt like I knew 85% of the answers! I was hearing the rationales in my head for each answer option as I was taking the test (like the ones from the practice exams), and it really helped me!! I really appreciated having the study schedule to keep me on track too! I actually completed my studying within 7 days (not consecutively). I wanted to share that in case anyone else is like me and got overwhelmed with the idea of having to study months to prepare for this exam. No matter how long it takes you, following TDC's system will get you through!! This program is truly amazing! Thank you so much! :)
Don't worry if you score extremely low on the last 2 exams from the LMFT Clinical course. I took the exam twice. The test I took in December was extremely harder than the test I took in the summer. I think it's pretty unfair but I guess that's just how the BBS will make money? Thanks to the TDC coaches and their detailed responses, I was able to gain my courage and retake it in September and passed. I was crying two days and nights before my exam because the practice exams were so difficult and hard, I started to panic. Once of the coaches really supported me and told me this was normal. When the day of the exam came, I was surprised how confident I was feeling during the exam. I'm just happy to finally be licensed and put this entire chapter behind me. Thank you TDC coaches and Amanda!
Just took my test and passed! Very comprehensive program for a very tough test! This program provided the information needed and also the mindset. If I hadn't known what I knew from this course, it would have been very discouraging! Thanks!!
TDC was an excellent study guide and helped me passed my test. It broke down concepts into manageable study modules. I definitely took Amanda in with me for the exam, and her rationalizations assisted me while taking the test. Thank you TDC!!!
Overall great programs! I've used the TDC exam prep for both my law & ethics exam and the MFT final clinical exam and passed both on the first attempt. I felt like TDC prepared me really well for both tests. The final exam questions felt very similar to the practice ones I was familiar with. I found the last two mocks to be very difficult so I'd encourage people not to get discouraged if you don't do well on them. Thanks, TDC - highly recommend!
Such an effective study guide! Some of the questions were almost identical to those on the test, and the mock exams thoroughly prepared me for what to expect on the real exam. I could hear Amanda's voice helping me reason through each question! Thank you TDC!
I truly appreciate the honest feedback I received from TDC coaches Aysa and Robin. It was very helpful in learning how to conceptualize the presenting problems and manage my anxiety. I definitely recommend TDC to anyone preparing for LMFT exam.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
