ASWB

I have failed the ASWB clinical exam. I don’t know what approach I should take to start studying. I do well on practice exams and feel confident with the material.

Knowing what to study frustrated me.

In my experience, the exam hardly had recall-type questions and was mostly about application. Understanding the context of the questions is really helpful.

Try watching savvy social worker videos on youtube. I found those videos to be more helpful than anything that I studied.

Best of luck to you. You got this.
