LEAP Testimonials

I kept failing and wondered why until a friend of mine introduced me to Leap the daily test questions kept me at bay not to give up. Every time I failed by 5 to 1 point, Leap administrators were so kind to re-open to restudying. My scores on leap exam went from 45, 60 and…

I was really nervous taking the clinical exam, because I’m 8 years out of my graduate program. However, I passed with 90% on my first attempt thanks to LEAP. I’d originally taken a virtual class with another organization, and they were so disparaging I was really worried I’d fail so many years out of school….

I used LEAP study materials to pass my LGSW exam as well as my LICSW exam. I highly recommend using LEAP. BRS Passed in the state of DC

I really enjoyed this program and it helped me pass my exam on the first try! The text book and practice test were so helpful. Emily B. Passed in the state of Illinois

The LEAP material was applied for both LSW and LCSW exams. I can say with clarity the material matters and was instrumental in passing both exams. In these cases I did not pass on the first go-around. I was out of grad school nearly 19 years before sitting for the LCSW. The material was key…

I was first introduced to LEAP products through my university while I was in graduate school. I used the comprehensive study guide to study for my masters exam and passed on my first try. I used the comprehensive study guide again to study for my clinical exam and also passed on the first try. I…

The video series was very helpful because it kept me engaged. I also read out loud from the comprehensive study guide and the DSM5 study guide. Most importantly, I learned about testing strategy for the clinical test. My score on the practice test improved after focusing on going slow through the question to identify and…

When I was in grad school, LEAP was recommended by my university to help study for the masters exam and I’m so glad that I decided to take their advice. LEAP’s comprehensive study guide goes over all the things that can easily be forgotten over the years of schooling, but doesn’t overload you with too…

Only used the clinical LEAP book and passed my first try. The test is hard. Read through the book a few times. And it is worth it. Take away some of your experience and really think about the core of social work and state requirements. Our practice policies can sometimes over complicate it. I am…

The LEAP is definitely a prep that I tell everyone to use. I used it for the Masters and Clinical exams. I passed both the first time. LICSW, PIP Passed in the state of Alabama

I was advised by my supervisor to use LEAP study materials. I purchased the Master’s level MSW textbook, audio, and practice exam. Definitely worth the purchase, I will use them in the future for my LCSW study materials as well. Christina S. NM

I used Leap for all three exams (Bachelor, Master’s, & Clinical) and I passed all three exams the first time taking it. Leap material really helped with all the required content areas and practice questions that ensured I was ready for the exams. Tiffany B.Minnesota

I am so grateful to LEAP for all the excellent study materials that was a match for my learning disabilities. I’m a visual learner, process information at a slower rate than other learners. For this reason, I was so appreciative of the video study guide that made the material very clear, in the way I…

Thank you LEAP for the videos and recommending the practice exam which I took to help me prepare for the Cliincal Social Work exam. I took the exam for the third time and finally passed as for the first time I felt more confident due the my preparation with LEAP. Patty D.MA

Thanks to LEAP I passed my state licensure exam this week! The study guide and videos were great resource tools to learn the content! I would recommend these tools to anyone that is studying for the exam!! KelliKentucky

The only tool I used for the licensure exam was Leap. I am so grateful that this course was offered during my last semester in college. I passed my exam thanks to Leap! Thank you so much to Kym for making this course possible. Kym, I hope you got your chocolate! Lillie BarkerOhio

I found the test-taking strategies to be the most helpful part of the preparation. There are many questions that I did not anticipate and were not covered in the preparation materials, so I recommend looking at test questions to get an idea as to what to expect. Raul EspericuetaArizona

I used the LEAP materials along with some other useful study prep materials. Thanks LEAP! Lynn GMI

I’ve tried other study materials prior to using LEAP and was unsuccessful passing the test. I used the LEAP study book, along with the LEAP Videos and passed my test yesterday! Thank you LEAP!!! I felt confident and used the strategies you recommended in choosing the correct answers. AndraeMichigan

I had been trying for a number of years to pass my clinical exam. I could never find the right program until now. I liked the study plan that was in place and I did follow that plan. I learned that I am a visual and auditory learner. I was not sure I was ready…

I passed the ASWB Exam on the first try!!!I used the Leap study materials, specifically the practice test and the DSM study book to brush up on diagnoses. Chelsea T.KY

Dear LEAP team, I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for the incredible study material you provided. Thanks to your book, video content, and Exam A, I was able to successfully pass my LCSW exam. Before discovering LEAP, I had initially turned to Shara’s Journey to Licensure for study materials. Unfortunately,…

I have been waiting to pass this exam since 1998. The last time I took the exam was 2006! My friend told me about LEAP. Never give up hold onto your dreams. God can do the impossible! Thank you LEAP! SamOhio

I attended a zoom meeting study group hosted by Kym and found this study group to be quite helpful and informative. Kym presented the material in a manner that made sense and help me understand the critical thinking process of the testing process. I also purchased the LEAP audio and video presentation, presented by Kym…

LEAP was made optionally available through my bachelor’s program. As social workers, we help clients find resources for their empowerment, and I am so glad I took advantage of this resource for my own! What first attracted me was the Zoom session I had the chance to participate in with Kym through my college program….

I did not use LEAP Program to pass my LMSW because I used it the first time and failed it. So, I used the Therapist Development Center and over passed it with a score of 120. I can’t recommend that program enough. I have recommended it to all of my MSW grad friends and they…

Thank you LEAP for the videos and recommending the practice exam which I took to help me prepare for the Cliincal Social Work exam. I took the exam for the third time and finally passed as for the first time I felt more confident due the my preparation with LEAP. Patty D.MA

I purchased the Comprehensive Study Guide and read through the entire thing then took the practice test. I read it again and paid extra attention to the areas I didn’t do as well in and then took the test again. After that, I did the ASWB practice exam. On test day, I passed! I have…

Thank you LEAP!! I was recommended to use you after my third attempt of not passing. The practice test, videos, and book really helped bring everything together for me. Passed the exam by a great margin. Thank you!!! NateyaNevada

I passed the Clinical License Social Exam on 9/28/2022!!!! Using L. E. A. P. program allowed me to pass both the LSW and LCSW exam on the first attempt. Purchased the audio, DSM-5 guide and study guide. Kim HPennsylvania

I passed the LICSW exam in MA yesterday, and it was my 3rd which began in 2015. The LEAP prep program, and last minute phone call with KIm made me feel more confidant yesterday than I had previously! The exam was tough but applying wag at I learned from LEAP trained me to take my…

I talked with Kym over the phone on 08/23/22, and she offered test strategies. Her test strategies were provided to me earlier in a virtual school session back in January. She stated during the phone conversation I was analytical… which she used to try to sell me her videos. I have already watched the videos…

The study material was excellent to prepare for the exam. I passed on the first try! Sarah JohnsonIL

I found the LEAP STUDY materials to be extremely comprehensive and thorough. The study guide was reflective of the case scenarios and clinical information required to comprehend and understand the test more thoroughly. I utilized LEAP STUDY materials for both my LSW and LCSW Exams. I would highly recommend LEAP STUDY materials as a tool…

I passed both my LSW and my Clinical exam on the first try with the help of LEAP. One of the most important takeaways is that LEAP prepares you with understanding the content and with HOW to approach test questions. I highly recommend their program. It’s great for various types of learners. Lavon PHawaii

LEAP provided me the necessary resources to feel extremely confident during my exam. Halfway through the test, I began to notice patterns, I felt comfortable in knowing what to look for in the test questions and I ended up passing comfortably. Thank you LEAP!! Colt. C.MN

While I am thrilled to have passed my clinical licensing exam, I am not able to thank my preparation with the LEAP study guide for that. The clinical exam consisted of 170 questions strictly in the area of clinical practice. The LEAP guide led me to believe the exam would be divided by sections, similar…

I studied for Six months and used the Leap Comprehensive Study Guide and audio as my primary studying materials. T.N.GA

I used the LEAP product for my LMSW and LCSW and had success! Adrienne

In the months leading up to my exam, I finished school, my husband defended his thesis, my whole family met up in Disney world (my husband and I live across the country from our families), and life brought us some momentous events as well as unpredicted circumstances in such a short amount of time. But…

Such a great study guide. Covered just enough of the material to not over due it. The practice exams were also very helpful! Definitely worth purchasing for test taking practice! SHTx

I bought the Leap study books for my BSW and MSW exams. I studied them daily for three months and passed both exams on the first try, Thank you LEAP. The books saved me time in collecting the information needed to study, They proved to be a worthwhile investment. I have recommended them to friends…

Passed my clinical license exam with in a 10 day turnaround from scheduling and all I can say is THANKS TO LEAP! I have taken exams at the bachelors, masters and clinical level, each time I’ve purchased a LEAP exam prep book and it has been beyond worth it. They are updated with current material,…

I purchased the video series and the study guide. While I found the series helpful it was really the book that helped me the most. I did however encounter questions I wasn’t prepared for, especially in the pharmaceuticals.I didn’t make a point to study that section in depth. Ultimately what was a great contribution from…

I highly recommend using the audio material. It helped me understand and absorb the information better than just reading. It also gives examples and scenarios that make learning easier. Robin TaylorSC

I first got the Comprehensive Study Guide through my university. I took the exam and I failed my first attempt. I was highly frustrated at myself. I went to the website and ordered the book and audio. The audio course was so helpful and is a reason why I believe I passed on my second…

I am not one to write testimonials but felt I WANTED to and HAD to after my wonderful experience using LEAP! I first took the LICW exam appx. 2 years ago. Honestly, I did not study too much at all. I didn’t do too badly but I did not pass. The 2nd time I tested,…

I cannot say enough amazing things about the materials from LEAP that I used to study. I put off taking the exam due to anxiety about not even knowing where to start, and then life happened. I got married and had kids, and honestly didn’t know how I’d find the time. Being able to watch…

I finally passed my social work licensing test! I tried TDC, AATBS, and Dawn Apgar and none of them worked for me. The LEAP material was MUCH more like the real test and was definately more updated and concise. I passed by 28 extra points!!!! Whaaaaattttt!!!! Proud LCSW here indra

I cannot state enough positive things about Kym and the entire LEAP team!!! Kym was so positive and encouraging on the phone call and the material was definitely worth the investment! I would recommend the LEAP products ten times over for those individuals embarking on their study journey. I followed the recommendations in the guide…

I highly recommend using the Leap products to study and assist anyone in taking the licensing test. I used the products for both my Masters and Clinical test and passed both successfully. M. LuisIdaho

I’m happy to announce that I passed the Masters Exam! Thank you so much LEAP for the exceptional value that you provided in increasing my confidence and ability to pass the exam the first time! I love the study-schedule that is given in order to prioritize certain subject areas and be on a continuous schedule…

The Leap comprehensive study guide is very detailed and it covered what I needed to pass the exam! It was also helpful to watch the prerecorded videos where the advisors went through the book which helped me to know what to focus on as I prepared for the exam! I was able to take many…

Not only did I pass, I crushed it! I failed the clinical exam twice before finding LEAP, thank goodness I did! I used 2 different companies before and knew that I needed a good audio program to study as I am an audio learner for this 3rd attempt. I purchased the book and new video…

I just passed the Master Licensure Exam on the first attempt!!!! In using both the cd and prep book I studied everyday for 2 months. During the last two weeks of studying I purchased the LEAP tests, I found this mentally prepared me for the actually exam, in addition speaking to Kim from LEAP. I…

I really appreciated the layout of the LEAP study guide and it’s clarity in the content. I read the book 3 times through, as recommended, and I definitely feel like that was a sufficient amount to make me feel prepared and ready to take the test. Although I do feel like there was a lot…

My license journey: I graduated with my MSW in 2013. After 3 failed exam attempts, I was officially defeated and seriously considering a career choice. I made the decision to move cross country to California and was an ABA therapist for 4 years. I finally moved back to Maryland in April of this year and…

My colleagues recommended the LEAP products as I prepared for the LMSW exam. I found the material easy to read and extremely helpful. I had been out of grad school for over 12 years as I was getting out of child welfare and into a clinical career. I was initially nervous but quickly found the…

I passed my LMSW exam yesterday and I literally cried when I saw the words “pass” on the screen. This was my second attempt in passing this exam as the first time, I paid for a $350 two day class offered through my college and also purchased a guide book from a lmsw boot camp…

I just wanted to share that reading all the way through the full study guide, DSM, and using the audio CDs were very important in getting my mind back into the swing of assessments and the overall clinical nature of the material. But the absolute BEST thing was reviewing test taking strategies. Being familiar with…

The Leap materials were a fantastic way to prepare for the exam. I have used it for both my LMSW and LCSW and found it to be an invaluable resource. I would highly recommend! Yonason WitonskyNew York.

LEAP offers comprehensive study guides that reflect the level of exam content and challenge for the Masters Level Social Work Exam. I used these excellent tools after I had completed another study guide. LEAP materials were superior! The general study guide offers an overview of the sections of the exam, the DSM V guide is…

As far as I know, Leap is the only resource that offered an audio study format. I am an audio “learner,” and believe this greatly facilitated my ability to pass my exam. I will be a returning customer for the LCSW study materials, and will likely purchase the study booklet to go along with the…

I got the comprehensive study guide to study for the clinical exam to get my LCSW. The practice test in the back of the book was very helpful. Most of the book talked about theories and diagnoses and types of therapy, and almost none of it applied to the test. Buying practice tests would be…

Very comprehensive study guide. The practice tests and instructions for review were very helpful! MichelleGeorgia

Leap program helped me target the material I really needed to know. Alesha R Thomas,LMSWAL

Fantastic study materials! Easy to follow ( very effective !!’ MaryMaryland

I honestly don’t believe I would have passed my test without the LEAP program! Erin WOhio

I found this material searching the web and there were great reviews and testimonials, so I gave it a shot. I studied the material for over 2 months, just about everyday for 2-3 hrs. I loved the fact that the information was broken down, easy to understand and appreciated the study tips and practice exams….

I was extremely intimidated of the clinical exam. I wanted to pass on the first time because it can get very expensive and not to mention disappointing. Well I’m happy to admit that I passed on my first try!!!! I studied for three months and I used the study guide, audio DVDs, and the LCSW…

11/07/2018 I studied for the exam the first time on my own reading about theories and taking several on line exams. Unfortunately it wasn’t enough and I failed it. I was determined to pass the second time. I ordered the LEAP guide as well as a few others. I read the LEAP book 3x took…

08/14/2018 I utilized both the LEAP Comprehensive Study Guide and the Audio CD’s to successfully pass the LMSW exam on the 1st try! I read, outlined, and reviewed the study guide three times, and I listened to each CD at least five times without distractions. The material was presented in a clear and concise manner…

07/16/2018 To whom it may concern… I really liked the combo of the test taking booklet and the CD’s. I used them exclusively to study from and my score on the test at the back of the book was 122 and within 4 points on the actual exam. In terms of content the study guide…

06/25/2018 I took the Masters exam on June 4, 2016. I ordered the study guide and the DSM 5 diagnostic book. I studied the guide for roughly 6 weeks prior to taking the exam and passed more than 10 points above the score I was required to get in order to pass. The material is…

06/13/2018 I used both the CD’s and the LEAP Guide to pass both my master’s and clinical exams. If you take the time to read the book and listen to the CD’s well in advance before you take the exam, then you will greatly increase your odds of passing. I can say that these materials…

03/23/2018 I recently passed the Master level Social Work licensing exam. I feel that the study guide I bought from Licensing ExAm Preparation Services, LLC played a large role in my passing the exam. I highly recommend this company and the study guides they produce. Jessica NV

03/15/2018 After many years and several attempts, I FINALLY passed the LCSW exam!!! I attribute successfully passing the LCSW exam to a strong support system, a positive mantra “I GOT THIS”, and the LEAP materials. I used the online practice exams, audio and written materials to help prepare for the exam. Thank you to my…

06/17/2017 Where do I begin? If it was not for pray and the LEAP book I don’t know if I would have passed on my first try. So when I first scheduled for my test I scheduled for June 23 on May 9th. As the weeks went by I decided to check to make sure…

01/01/2018 I live in NY and recently passed the LCSW exam on the second try. I did not use the LEAP manual the first try, due to going to boot camp training for one day. They sell you a thin book and a pipe dream. I do not recommend the Boot Camp; it tries to…

09/25/2017Today I passed the clinical licensing exam and I have LEAP to thank! I purchased the comprehensive study guide along with the DSM-5 study guide. I studied for 2 months–Read through the material, made notecards, and completed the case scenarios in the DSM 5 study guide. I studied from other material previously that was more…

06/19/2017 Basically, I read the material, listened to the audio, and reviewed what I learned from master’s program. My only suggestion for those who are preparing to pass their license exam. William Jordan Georgia

06/12/2017 I have horrible test anxiety so I needed the BEST material out there in order to reduce the anxiety. I was hesitant about LEAP but I gave it a chance. I read it 3 times like it was recommended and purchased the DSM diagnostic book as well. When the “Pass” appeared I was ecstatic….

05/23/2017 I took the live class in Phoenix, AZ in 05/2015, around the time I graduated with my MSW. I heeded the advice about taking the exam as soon as possible after graduation, although I was disappointed to find out that, in Oregon, the LMSW exam was not required before accumulating hours toward the LCSW….

05/01/2017 I passed my Masters Licensing Exam today. I used the L.E.A.P Comprehensive Study Guide. I am too thrilled! L.E.A.P is the way to go. The study guide covers all content on the ASWB masters outline. Loved the fact the practice test questions have detailed answer summaries. The practice test questions are very similar to…

04/21/2017 I would have not passed this exam without the support and book that I purchased from Leap! My first test I failed by a few questions which discouraged me from retaking it because I really thought I did well. I researched to find material that may help me and I ran across Leap. I…

04/11/2017 I had taken the exam 5 years ago after being out of school for 10 years and didn’t pass using a different study program. This time a colleague recommended that I use the LEAP program. I am forever great-full she did. I used the LEAP program and it was the best program for me….

03/15/2017 I passed the LCSW on the first time thanks to the LEAP study material. Nita Alabama

02/02/2017 Hi Everyone, I wanted to write a quick testimonial to express how the LEAP products helped me pass the licensing exam ON THE FIRST TRY!

08/04/2016 I purchased the LEAP study guide for the Masters Clinical Exam in July 2016. I took my exam in early August and passed! I am fortunate to have summers off (school social work) so I was able to devote a LOT of time to studying. The LEAP study guide had everything I needed to…

05/21/2016 I would like to take the time to thank Kym for putting me at ease. I have my bachelors in social work but I did not the passed the exam yet. After failing in 2014, I decided that it would be my last and I went back to school. As of right now I’m…

I passed with 127 questions correct for the ASWB exam on a test with a pass point of 95 questions, I annihilated the test! I purchased 3 other types of testing methods before LEAP and felt that each covered some of the material well but glossed over other areas, even after combining them i still…

03/28/2016 I took my LCSW Exam on 3/19/16 after only 4 days of studying, and I passed! I occasionally still look at my unofficial score just to make sure “Pass” is still there. Words of encouragement: “Once you pass, it will not matter how many times you took it or how much money you spent!”…

03/17/2016 LEAP exam test materials truly represent what is presented on their website. I used the LEAP comprehensive study guides (in 2011 and in 2015) to study for the LGSW and LCSW-C exams and I passed both! The study guides are very organized, detailed and comprehensive. I have referred several colleagues to the LEAP site…

02/20/2016 Here’s the truth: The LEAP program offered a two day conference for the Licensing Exam Prep at a University near me. I took it when I was finally getting around to accepting I was going to have to take this. That was about 4 years ago. Then I procrastinated. Took the test about 2…

01/25/2016 When I passed the Licensed Masters of Social Work exam in 7/5/2014, I was happy that LEAP materials helped me. It was a work colleague that recommended LEAP. I am now recommending LEAP to other work colleagues, who had given up all hope. Yes there is hope in passing your exam!! Sonia Teague New…

11/23/2015 I graduated with my MSW over 8 years ago, and took my Licensing exam for the first time today… and passed! I wish I had taken the exam years ago, when the information was fresh in my head. However, some of us are great at procrastinating. At this point, I was afraid of the…
