[humanser] Social Workers Exam Prep

[Merry Schoch]

I have had great luck!!  I was able to contact one company Academic Review
who worked withme me and I have been able to access a diagnostic exam andit
worked well with JAWS.  So I am quite pleased!!  The other company has not
returned my call as of yet, but I am hoping for the same type of result.  I
am very excited.  My advice is to not take the word of a front line customer
service representative whenit comes to knowing if the products are
accessible and go to their supervisor.

Hello Mary,

I'm Serena from NJ.  I'm currently studying for the LSW exam in NJ.
In my state, the National Association of Social Workers provided us with PDF
files of practice materials.  You could check the Florida NASW and see if
they have any materials.  I found out about the availability of these
materials through my grad school, so you could also ask your grad school if
they know of any PDF/other documents of practice materials.]

Good luck,
Serena
