Wonderful Content
The questions are very engaging and provide great detail as to why a choice should have been selected and why other options were not correct. The explanations are spot on and easy to comprehend. I also love that references are given to what study books were used to find each answer. Provides great detail on what we should focus on depending on our score.

Decent price for prep LMSW
Not sure which edition this app uses to formulate their questions but they are using SOAP acronym versus SMART goals. This app helped understand how to read the questions gives feedback on rational and it helps eliminate distraction answers. This app also review s family systems and macro which the TDC didn’t really expand on. I like the quizzes, tracking your progress, and the new mock exam.

Pros & Cons
I love the variety of questions for the Certified Alcohol & Drug Counseling version, however I’m not too impressed with the wording of the questions, they’re a bit confusing at times, use of big or difficult to understand words can increase testing anxieties. I recommend using language that’s easy for anyone to understand and later on articulate. Lastly, I love the explanations for each answer but some of the explanations are very vague and doesn’t offer a detailed explanation of the answer. A quick example would be, naltrexone treats alcohol and opioid and the explanation given mirrors the answer without further exploration. I’ve seen this pattern throughout several exams.
Overall I love the app but I memorized some for the responses, which isn’t good but. Understanding the reason behind the answers are essential.

Must admit, it works
I used this a little over a month before my LCSW/ ASWB Clinical Exam.
The questions were more similar to the test than the official prep test questions. I was discouraged by how many questions I got wrong, but it made me remember them. I paid for a month to get the 1000 questions, and it’s worth it. I made sure to do about 40 questions a day to complete all 1000. It was helpful to keep track of test countdown, study times, and areas of strength and weakness for exam material.
The breadth of materials covered will never match your test, it’s about learning the way of answering the questions. This app does a good job mimicking the essence of the actual test questions. No matter what or how much you study you won’t have reviewed everything on your test. The test is general so anyone can take it no matter their specific work sector. Learn the basics of what social work is and the ethics and you will pass.
Answer explanation were very good.
I also paired this with Apgar’s study guide, 100 DSM questions… and along with FAREAFI and AASPIRINS
Good luck folks! I hope one time is the charm!

My thoughts
I am loving this app because if I select the wrong answer it gives a full explanation. However, if a right answer is selected an explanation is also given in great details. This is exactly what I need to prepare for the licensure exam.
Passed LCSW exam on the first try with only 7 hours studying
I bought the Dawn Apgar book (which I never opened) and started using this app like 10 days before my exam. I put in about 7 hours of studying using the “QUICK 10” feature with 10 questions at a time. And today I passed my exam on the first try! Super happy, and highly recommend.
Excellent!
I took my test today and aced it! 124 out of 160!!! This product was perfect for the working professional who needs to squeeze in some study time every chance they get. It was a supplemental tool, of course, but I felt confident and was prepared to succeed!! I recommend it!!!
Great way to study
I am preparing for the IC&RC exam and this is a great way to study and prepare. It’s not too much nor is it insufficient. The question of the day is a great way to study daily and then doing a quick 10 quiz is also helpful, especially when you do not want to over study or like myself cannot stay focused for so long because I get frustrated being unable to retain information. I do feel like it’s helping me but at the same time made me realize that I am not ready to test.

Best preparation for the least amount of $$$
I used this app for BOTH the LMSW and LCSW exams. I studying for about two weeks each time. Pass both on the first attempt. The questions on the app are harder than the actual exam, and I got low scores on many of my quizzes. Don't let that discourage you. If you make it through all of the questions on this app, and retake the ones you missed, you'll be in good shape for the exam.

Helps my ADHD brain study!
I was hesitant to pay for an app to study since I was already gifted the ASWB LMSW exam book that comes with the online study guide as well, but I absolutely have no regrets! The quick 10 quizzes are perfect to do here and there throughout the day and I appreciate the explanations that come along with the answers (whether you get the question right or wrong).
I also know that these questions are valid/realistic questions for the exam as I have seen a couple overlap from the actual ASWB exam book.
