Congratulations Cara!
I used Gerry Grossman and liked it a lot – had purchased the AATBS for another state and then went with GG for CA. I took the test yesterday and passed. I thought the classes were very helpful (though expensive) because it limited the info you need to know and gives you [...]
Congratulations Kel, who posted this in comments:
So for those using AATBS TESTmaster and accompanying materials, I certainly struggled to make sense of what my testmaster scores meant in terms of the actual Clinical licensing test. Here’s what I have to pass on: I studied for probably about 4 full days, took 5 of [...]
From my inbox, a strong recommendation for SocialWorkExam.com.
Pleased to tell you I passed the LISW Clinical exam on the first try and didn’t just “barely pass,” but passed with flying colors! SocialWorkExam.com was recommended to me by a fellow social worker and I have already recommended the site to others preparing for the [...]
Up from comments:
I just took the exam today and passed. I used the AATBS Testmaster via computer — went through all 5 tests in study mode (did not retake any in exam mode). My highest overall percentage was 69% and lowest was 57%. I agree with comments made by Eva on [...]
From my inbox–KC, recent CA exam passer. Thanks and congratulations!
Thanks for your website–really helpful for me in passing the California Written Clinical. Here’s what worked for me (and what didn’t).
I am a pretty anxious person in general, so even under the best circumstances I can get sidetracked by worries that I [...]
Gotten through the exam already or know someone who has? Send in words of wisdom for all those not yet there. People want to know how to get it done.
Some questions:
How did you study content (program, hours, duration)? What was worth it, what was wasted time?

 Congratulations to SWTP reader Eva, who passed the California Clinical Vignette exam earlier this week. Here, some emails that preceded exam time, and an explanation of how she made it happen:
Hi,
I was glad to find your site – it was helpful in preparing and passing
the first exam.
I’m planning to take the second exam tomorrow. I just got into the
“hard” questions for AATBS. They seem absolutely ridiculous in terms
of the language used to phrase potential answers: it is sooooooo
incredibly confusing. I am considering not even taking them because it
might erode whatever confidence I was feeling so far. Are there any
questions on the exam that are like the “hard” questions? Or, do you
think I’ll be ok with reworking the medium questions and retaking the
mock exams?
Thanks in advance,
Eva
Eva,
Those hard questions are impossible, nearly unanswerable, and nothing like the questions on the real exam, in my experience. Their only value is in helping you mega-hyper-concentrate on every word in each question and answer…which you’re already doing if you’re getting the medium questions right. Probably best to do with the exam tomorrow: quit studying. You’re ready.
Good luck! Let me (or the blog) know how it goes.
Best,
Will
Thanks so much for your reply. Helps to know I was going in right direction when I decided to take a break and just focus back on mock exams. Geez, those hard questions are enough to make you really worry…taking a deep breath, eating and taking one more mock exam.
Thanks again for your quick reply-
I’ll keep you posted re: tomorrow ;)
