SynopsisIncludes a free mobile & web app "Dawn gave us the tools we needed to take the exam, and let me tell you--she was on point Not only did she cover the content areas we needed to focus in on, but she also showed us how to read and interpret the questions on the exam." --Ammu D. Kowolik, LMSW, McSilver Institute for Poverty Policy and Research Students and social workers preparing for the social work clinical licensure exam will find an invaluable study resource in the Social Work ASWB(R) Clinical Exam Guide . Written by a prominent social work leader and trainer for social work licensing exams in the United States, this guide is based on years of time-tested exam prep workshops conducted by the author. It mirrors the ASWB Clinical "Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities" upon which the exam is based and incorporates information from the DSM(R)-5. The guide is comprehensive yet focuses on the material most likely to be included on the exam, so readers can prioritize information as they study. A self-assessment section helps identify strengths and weaknesses before tackling the material. The author shares her extensive knowledge of the exam by providing useful test-taking strategies and tips for overcoming test anxiety. The 170-question practice test at the end of the guide (with explanations of the correct answers) mirrors the actual exam in both length and structure. Content includes human development, human behavior in the environment, diversity, addictions, assessment and diagnosis, treatment planning, clinical interventions, case management, and professional values and ethics. This book will be a valuable asset for social workers throughout the United States and Canada. Key Features: Developed by a highly respected educator of social work licensure candidates Covers all the content areas on the clinical examination, including new content added in 2015 Begins with a self-assessment section to help identify areas of strength and weakness Offers a wealth of test-taking tips and strategies to foster exam confidence Includes a practice test (with explanations of the correct answers) that mirrors the exam ASWB is a registered service mark of the Association of Social Work Boards, which neither sponsors nor endorses this product.

  • Not the best way to prepare for the exam

    If studying for the LCSW exam you don't need this book, other than for the 170 question practice test at the back. It'll be better for you to buy a bunch of practice tests to get used to the format. Keep taking them until you are comfortable with and about the process. The most helpful thing when I took the LSW and LCSW exams was just memorizing the 2 acronyms: FAREAFI and AASPIRINS. Look those 2 up.

  • Poor publishing quality

    While the content is excellent, I will pursue returning this particular book. The book binding is loose and looks like it will easily come apart in the near future. Two of the pages are printed at an angle that makes it difficult to read. Too bad!

  • Awesome study guide! I highly recommend this product.

    Easy to read and understand. Focuses on the important content and doesn't flood you with too much information.

  • Good stuff

    It was a school book so content wasn’t compelling but it was cheaper than buying new and the used hardback version. I’m not sure if it was this book or another where some chapters were in other places than the original but they were all still there and got the job done...
