10/3/2014 I've been using Counseling Exams as well and appreciate the variety of study supports on this site. I am finding the way the simulations are set up to be helpful, the quizes and quick flash cards are easy to use when I can carve out a few extra minutes here and there to study. Of course I'm keeping my DSM5 next to me for extra depth review when I find something I'm lacking in. Another added bonus that I didn't think I would like as much as I do is the daily email encouraging me to study and not give into my anxiety!

6/28/2018 I spent about 2 months preparing. First month I read through the full DSM 5 fairly carefully, made flash cards with diagnostic criteria (I never used them to study, so maybe not so helpful) read comments in this group and did some of the free samples on counselingexam.com - Linton's site. This past month I went through DSM again, with self testing - would look at diagnosis title and close my eyes and recall the criteria, then went to differential diagnoses section and did the same - looked at headings and repeated to myself the differential criteria. I memorize best when moving, so I did a lot of this pacing around my office and backyard. Final week: cut out beer, increased intake of dark chocolate and walnuts, continued differential review. Saturday, signed up for Linton's site one day and spent about 10 hours taking practice tests. Yikes, a bit brain numbing. Finished about half the simulations but that was more than enough. It was great prep for the test format. Sunday - rested, dabbled in DSM 5. Monday morning, today, took the test. Tonight - $2 beers

10/3/2014 I purchased additional study programs the second time around to motivate/inspire me, including Jonathan Maletz' Exam Workshop: http://www.clinicalexamworkshop.com/ and Arthur-Brende's Study Program: https://www.counselorexams.com/ncmhce. I also purchased Dr. Linton's program for 7 days before the exam, which was very helpful in quizzing myself on DSM-5 and for the practice simulations. I'm a writer, so I made notecards for Diagnoses and everything else of importance. I used AATBS and Dr. Linton's sites on my first attempt. I found that AATBS was too comprehensive for me the second time around...I will say that the included Exam Consultant services were wonderful, though, and helped with anxiety and to feel that I was not "in this alone" since I did not have a study group. Good luck to those of you studying! You can do it!

10/3/2014 Hi, I passed this morning. It was easy after all of the prep! Every day, for the past month, I have been taking practice exams at counselingexam.com. I also ordered Jonathan Maletz' online course and took that at the beginning of the week. I felt very well prepared and finished the entire exam in just a little over an hour!

10/3/2014 I purchased the practice exams from Dr. Linton Hutchinson http://www.counselingexam.com/ncmhce/index.shtml. This was my first time taking the exam and I did not study a lot of heavy content - just the test taking strategies and the main disorders.

10/3/2014 Took the NCMHCE this morning and passed! I used counselingexam.com, did a slew of simulations, and then took the example 4 hour test the night before the exam. Such a great feeling! Good Luck to all of you who are still studying! Trust your gut, take deep breaths, and get it done :)

12/13/2022 I knew that what I needed to blow that test away on Tuesday, was in there! I passed! Thanks for the awesome depth of clinical knowledge and the engaging presentations !Honestly the test was a breeze! I came to a pistol duel with a Thermo Nuclear Missile because of your site Doc! Kudos and Two Thumbs Up!!! Because of the massive amount of knowledge you provided and my thirst for that knowledge, I'm better prepared to offer help to suffering co occurring consumers referred to my program. Again... Like you said..its in there!
