LCSW Clinical Social Worker Exam Prep

This app can be helpful but it hasn't been updated in years.

After testing this for a few days I’ve found this test repeats the same questions frequently. It also doesn’t clearly state the correct answer and instead gives you the letter. It would be nice to review the other options with the correct answer written clearly. Maybe you can do that but the UX isn’t strong enough to understand it simply. Overall visual design gets 0 stars since it looks like a ppt template.

I've found this app most helpful.

I would like a refund. This material is dated & not relevant any longer.

This app does not offer typical questions or testing structure for LCSW Exam. Real test does NOT have "all of the above" style questions, firstly. Secondly, the questions themselves did not use language like: "what should the clinician do first", "what is least appropriate", "what should the clinician do next", "what is the most appropriate"...etc. and thirdly, this content was more Masters level testing. Unfortunately there aren't any apps that seem to provide the full package. Will update if I find one that does.

My score for this app was directly reflected on the score I got today. Use this app for practice and to tell you what you need to study!

Serves its purpose. Especially for the price. Definitely gives a refresher on social work and clinical topics for the exam. However, it is annoying to use most of the time. The following improvements would be ideal: 1. Allow the option to randomly go through practice questions instead of only through each section sequentially. 2. When a question is "reviewed and understood" take it out of rotation. Also, give the option to exclude "understood" questions from the practice tests. 3. The scroll down feature through the questions is WAYYY too sensitive. You can't even scroll without clicking into a question almost everytime. Maybe add another column just for scrolling? 4. There are some typos. Also, one question lists the same answer choice twice. And one endangerment vs. neglect question is outdated. Time for an edit. I'd be willing to pay a few more dollars for the app with these improvements.

I passed the LCSW but I do not attribute any of it to this app. The questions are worded nothing like the actual exam. Plus, it's poorly designed. Some questions only have 3 answers. Lots of grammatical errors as well. The answer explanations are poor. This is an overpriced app. I should have listened to the previous reviews.

Very pleasantly surprised with these questions and enjoy the refreshing professional format that was clearly written by an Lcsw. All the correct bells and whistles for reviewing for this intense test. Certainly not the only means for tackling this wealth of information that is needed for this test, but it is definitely worth the small price that you'll need to pay. Highly recommended and best to those needing to pass your 2 California Lcsw exams!

Beware: These questions are NOTHING like the real questions by the clinical ASWB exam. The fact that they use ASWB in their name is misleading. And it's cheap so it seem like something worth trying - but DONT! This company, like many test prep companies, is not created by social workers. Please research this company, Upward Mobility, (and any companies you plan to use) before you buy from them and spend your time reviewing them. I recommend doing a google search and look at 5-6 of the top programs that come up. 1) Read their reviews. If they don't have full names, then assume most of the reviews are fake. 2) Read who is in charge at the company. This is the most important part. If the company isn't run by social workers then THEY DIDNT TAKE THE EXAMS. Even if the company has social workers make sure THOSE PEOPLE HAVE TAKEN THE EXAMS. Otherwise, in both those situations, the companies are just MAKING UP what they think is on the test and selling it to you. Then you WASTE YOUR $ and TIME studying the WRONG stuff and fail the exam. Worst of all you think it's you that failed. It never dawns on most people to think they were part of a SCAM. Well this company is part of that scam. It may just be $5, but it's still a scam. If you want to pass, do your research on the companies before you sign up for any of them. I'm a social worker and view this as a social justice issue because I am outraged that companies like this are ripping off my social work peers!
