Practical Strategies for Passing the Exam: Session 259 with Dana Meller and Steve Eversole

If you're a student, supervisor, or university instructor, this is an episode for you. In Session 259, I speak with Dana Meller and Dr. Steve Eversole, of Pass The Big ABA Exam and Behavior Development Solutions, respectively. In this conversation, they reflect on what they've learned about helping thousands of people pass the BCBA exam over many years.

In this conversation, we covered why they got into the test prep business, the state of BCBA testing today, re-taking the exam, interpreting the board's re-take data, barriers to passing the exam - including things like test anxiety and specific topics of difficulty, their counterintuitive opinions on SAFMEDS and mock exams, the role of social media, and how both of them became friends despite being competitors.

Here are the links we discussed:

Pass The Big ABA Exam main site.
Behavior Development Solutions main site.
Center for Behavior and Climate.
Dana and Steve on LinkedIn.
Honig and Staddon, Handbook of Operant Behavior.
Bloom's Taxonomy.
The University of American Samoa.
