Don’t forget that you ARE going to pass this exam and then you are going to likely start your job hunt. But when is the best time to start updating your resume? Well it isn’t once you pass your exam…it is now!

January Group Tutoring Registration is Now Open!
One of the biggest struggles students face with this exam is the lack of deadlines and assignments as they have in school. It is not uncommon for students with great grades in school to when you study for the dietitian exam, there is no preceptor or professor who is checking in on you or requesting assignments from you. Students are often studying on their own and also miss the classroom environment.
For these students I have made my monthly tutoring group. This 4 week courses provides students with the structure and accountability they need to stay on track with their studying. Classes start the first Sunday of the month and each week we meet as a class for 2 hours (6-8pEST). Each class is focused on 1 domain and is a mix of lecture, practice questions and discussion. Each group is limited to 10 students to allow for students to easily be able to be engaged in class and also to help for a community! Packages start at $200. Click here to learn more and apply. (Sign up by 12/15 for $50 off any package!)
Student Review: " I loved going over each domain together in a concise way with your slides and infographics. This was a great way for me to finally get my butt into gear. I hadn't started studying for the exam yet and Dana's 1 month group class going over all the domains was a great way to start." - Jacqueline (December Group)
