RECENT CHANGE TO THE ADC EXAMINATION – Questions with Three and Four Choices

Candidate Preparing for IC&RC’s ADC examination should note that starting in March of 2016, the ADC examination will have questions with either three (3) or four (4) choices. Read more…

The questions on the ACD/LCDC (Substance Abuse Counselor exam) are multiple choice, just as before, but with either three (3) or four (4) choices. The structure of the questions is the same in that there is only one correct answer (for questions with only one correct answer and two or three false answers), or best answer (for questions with more than one correct answer, but only one is the best answer that includes all the other correct answers).

The Umbrella method is still effective for questions with one best answer. The Umbrella method is the one in which you choose the answer that includes the other correct answers, therefore you end up choosing the best answer. For this kind of questions is necessary that you are very familiar with the topic so that you can identify all the potential correct answers and the main answer that includes them.

Study Guide for the Alcohol and Drug Counselor Exam | LCDC CADC CADC CSAC ADC

This is a special offer for all counselor interns preparing for the Alcohol and Drug Counselor certification exam. My study guide was developed based on the IC&RC ADC Candidate’s Guide, so the topics and materials offered in my online study guide are exactly what you need to prepare effectively for the exam.

I started this study guide in 2012 and it has been successful since then. I have improved it and updated it to match all the changes on the certification exam. It is very affordable compare to other costly and lengthy study guides out there, which many of them are available in hard copy only. This online study guide allows you to study the material anywhere, anytime. You can download some of the material and save it or print it out. You can find a list of resources that you can use for free, online, that you did not even know they existed.

This is a special offer for you to try it out for 2 weeks, for an affordable price.

I hope you find it helpful!
