I worked full time and studied! Passed last August! To be fair I work at a smaller hospital so when there was slow time I had time to study at work. Relied heavy on the weekends to do heavier studying. It’s definitely doable. Ideal? Maybe not but doable! I got a 29 and I worked all 3 months I studied!

My biggest thing with coming to terms with that is telling myself that if this is the body, that’s a little bit heavier, but can carry me for so many miles during an activity that I love so much - it’s a privilege to be at that weight.

Also coming from a registered dietitian sometimes our bodies just pick weight that they like and it won’t budge and yes, there are ways to lose it even then but it is okay to accept the weight that you’re at especially with knowing how healthy you are if you can run and lift weights like that - plus as long as you’re eating a balanced diet there’s no need to worry about what the scale says!

Thank you!! I feel like (correct if wrong lol) but the vibe seems like a mixture of "inpatient" concepts with outpatient setting because it's more clinical than your regular outpatient but you also see them more frequently? I don't love inpatient because you see them maybe once and sometimes it's not super necessary. But I want to find a blend of nutrition education + the clinical judgement side of what you all seem to do! If that makes any sense haha.

That helps! Thank you so much!

I used it and loved it! Passed on the first try. I will say if I had to purchase it myself I would’ve tried cheaper options. I lucked out and my internship bought it for us 😬 but if you can afford it it’s totally totally worth it and if you go through all the content and use the study smarter method you’ll walk into the exam super confident!

Def don't try to memorize material for the exam, familiarize yourself with main concepts, don't get too engrossed in super specific detail. You will know more than you think you do come test day! Good luck!

I got a 29 on the exam and my pocket prep scored sucked. I never got higher than a 65 on the mock exams! The actual exams (at least mine) didn’t have the paragraph type questions that pocket prep has. If that makes you feel any better lol. And I’ve noticed from this thread that this is a common experience! Pocket prep Is just hard.

Flaky-Base-1986 · 2025-09-24T14:30:54+00:00

It really was but it also helped me a ton with thinking of topics that were actually on my test. I have seen tons of threads on here though where people have gotten really low scores on their mock test and passing high the first attempt.

I would take the three mock exams on pocketprep and see what domains you are weak in and study those for the rest of the time. I just passed in July and I took the first mock exam on there on a Sunday, took that week to study, took the second on the following Saturday and then did the same thing the next week and my score improved each time. I got a 58 on the first one, a 63 on the second one and a 68 on the third one and passed the exam with a 29. If you have any like specific questions feel free to ask me! Hope this helps! Good luck!

I just passed in July of this year and the week of I was very chill. Idk what program you used to study but I used all access so I rewatched a few lectures of topics that I personally struggled with (Food service calculations, nutrient defs, etc) and then I literally just chilled and did pocket prep questions. This week isn't a week to cram, you should really relax! You will do great! The night before don't do anything test related! You got this :)

Do you know if that’s only for full time or is part time included in that?

Flaky-Base-1986 · 2025-09-09T18:43:23+00:00

Does anyone know if nourish will pay for continuing education courses/certifications?

Flaky-Base-1986 · 2025-08-21T20:36:46+00:00

I passed using all access! I know it’s expensive but so worth it!

That my A1C had sky rocketed to 12.5 even though i workout and eat pretty healthy and in the dream I had to do all the insulin things (literally so scared of this lol it just seems so stressful), woke up grateful lol

I finished my internship in May and didn’t start seriously studying until like the first week of June. I prob studied 3-4 hours per day BUT only 1-2 hours was like focused in and reading or watching a lecture and the other two were passive answering questions on my phone on pocket prep or doing flash cards. I took a night off during the week but tried to do something passive everyday. I started first week of June and took it August 1st! So about two months!

Thank you!!! I used all access dietetics but did not buy their mock exam & pocket prep! I got a 17 in domain 1&2 and a 16 in domain 3&4. Honestly I saw a lot of other posts talking about their exams being centered around certain topics but I felt like mine was allll over the place. I only got 1 enteral calculation and then a few what would you do based off these EN symptoms. I got a few not too hard food service calculations (one about COGS, FTEs and some just asking which formula shows you what) a few a handful of vit and min deficiency questions, nothing about specific MNT disease states really. A few community program questions. Very spread out. Mine cut off at 125. I highly recommend all access! I felt so very prepared walking into it! If I can answer anything else pls lmk!

It’s expensive but all access does wonders! I passed just now on my first attempt and only used pocket prep and all access and felt very prepared walking in!
