Health and Wellness is a Trillion Dollar Industry.

As a future dietitan, you are an important part of this industry, but is  Registered Dietitian Exam is slowing you down? Does it trigger anxiety, doubts and restlessness that keep you from showing up at your desk daily to study? 

You’re only human, so you have valid reasons. You’re busy with your dietetic internship coursework –– pouring your soul into your performance, tying up loose strings, preparing to graduate. 

Perhaps you graduated and your brain needs speed. Your boss is on your case, the pressure is on and you need to pass the RD Exam within 6 months.  

Maybe your story is different. You’re returning to the world of dietetics after a long hiatus and you need to make a strong comeback, but you have serious catching up to do and need a critical refresher on how to study to pass the exam in the shortest possible time.

Or maybe you’re a proactive future dietitian. You’re searching for smart opinions, brilliant advice and  even hacks to cut your time and effort in half to get the exam done at a faster rate. 

There is one tiny problem.

You have a large binder placed in front of you, overwhelming feelings racing through your body and you wonder, “Where do I start?”  “What do I do”, “What do I not do?” 

Your study guide doesn’t answer those burning questions.  

The Critical Weaknesses in your Study Guide That Slow You Down, Siphon Your Time and Suck Your Brain’s Brilliance.

  1. CRITICAL WEAKNESS #1: INFORMATION OVERLOAD & NONHOLISTIC PRESENTATION

    Most of the study guides have mountains of linear information –– black ink packed into a thick binder. The human brain doesn’t think in bullet points and it doesn’t process information in a linear fashion. The information in your binder leaves you overloaded and overwhelmed.

  2. CRITICAL WEAKNESS #2: NO MEANING MAKERS

    Your brain is on a hunt for meaning. It’s searching for context, patterns and associations to harness data longer term. The problem: your study guide makes it difficult to generate meaning because there is a lack of order and clear connections between concepts.

  3. CRITICAL WEAKNESS #3: LACK OF RATIONALES THAT CAUSE  “GOOGLE FEVER”

    Rationales allow you to learn from your mistakes. Some study guides don’t have any or not enough.  With an information gap lurking in your mind, you look for answers everywhere and develop an itch to seek clear explanations. To get this clarity, what do you do? You Google it. The refuge you find on the internet, the answers you seek are missing in your study guide.

  4. CRITICAL WEAKNESS #4: NO SWEET TICKLES TO YOUR RIGHT BRAIN

    You would be hard pressed to find illustrations in your study guide. With a serious lack of graphics and stifling of your imagination, you leave your most powerful asset on the table: Your visual memory. Most study guides are missing pictures,  illustrations and sketches to lighten up the complexity. 

The Urgent Reason to Claim Your RD Status Today.

Starting January 1, 2024, the minimum degree requirement for eligibility to take the RD exam for dietitians will change from a bachelor’s degree to a graduate degree. This means all future dietitians must have a Master’s degree to take the RD Exam! Here is the good news,  if you are eligible right now you can begin preparing for the exam today and jumpstart your career before the new guidelines are activated. 

Some Frustrating Emotions to be Aware of Before Taking the RD Exam

Everyone studies differently. There is no “start here” button that instantly drops the best tricks & hacks into your brain to study for the exam without feeling stressed. If you’re thinking any of the frustrating thoughts then this is a sign that you’re looking for a smarter, more optimal way of studying.

Where do I start?

What do I do?

What do I not do?

What’s the best way?

I’ll never pass.

 

 

The Unfortunate Loopholes in Your Strategy 

Flip through the pages of your RD Exam study guide and you will notice that the information is hard to retain just by reading it. So, what are your usual go-to action steps? Is it re-reading, recopying your notes and highlighting? Unfortuanately, scientific research proves that those study tactics do not work. 

Here’s why:

1. Loophole: Re-Reading

Re-reading does not cement information into your brain. Why? It’s not a concious effort. You aren’t processing information actively, so it gives you a false sense of satisfaction that you are studying effectively. 

2. Loophole: Highlighting

Unless you are a subject matter expert, research shows you may succumb to patchy and inconsistent markings of noncritical information. Information you may never see on the RD Exam. This boils down to variability. Meaning, each person has different highlighting capabilities. If you do this wrong, you end up wasting valuable time and hyper-focusing on irrelevant data that could impact your score . 

3. Loophole: Re-Copying Notes

Writing notes is great, but re-copying them blindly is a problem. Note taking is a solid encoding strategy. You engage with your RD Exam content and activate sections of your brain responsible for summarizing and paraphrasing.  However, verbatim copying does not yield these same benefits. Verdict? Stop re-copying your notes. You’re wasting time! 

From the Instructor —

A science-based gameplan revolutionized my study sessions.  

I once believed that studying is grueling and requires tremendous sacrifice and the dedication of gluing your bum to the chair for 11+ hours a day.

As a massive right-brained creative, I assumed that the smartest test-takers are the noncreative, heavy left-brainers that seem to glide through math and science without investing a lot of effort. Down the line, I realized I was wrong. This epiphany hit me toward the end of college. Based on the research, being born smart plays a small role in your ability to study, learn and remember information. What’s more important is how you study and what you do in your study sessions which makes a significant impact. 

Everything changed when I discovered memory techniques after failing the DTR exam in 2012. Several weeks into engrossing myself in learning & memory research, I stumbled onto science-based strategies. On my second attempt, I used these strategies to pass the DTR exam with flying colors, and years later, I passed the RD Exam on my first try. I even left the exam room 50 minutes early because I trained so well for the RD Exam!

None of these victories would have been possible if I didn’t know about the science of successful learning & memory. I used to be an insecure student, but now I fly through exams, certifications, and I actually retain a lot of information without taking notes when working with patients in my clinical work. 

This is why I’m so passionate to share this with you. 

RD Exam Playbook is the by-product of that knowledge; plus, countless failures, research, and experimentation. It’s designed to help you go beyond the typical strategy of exam preparation and learn cognitive tools that will serve you well after you pass the RD Exam, but also in your career as a dietitian. 

For the seven years, I’ve tailored the RD Exam Playbook to complement many RD Exam reviews (Inmans, Breeding & Associate included) and the techniques also apply to Academy’s Eat Right Prep review.  The is possible because the techniques you will learn inside the Playbook are truly universal.

Once you learn them, you’ll carry them with you for the rest of your life.

Using the four fundamental techniques in this program—reverse engineering, flashcard creation, Feynman’s method, and Kaizen Flashcard game—you’ll learn how to study effectively, enhance your memory and eventually put your review sessions on autopilot. 

Just a fair warning. The work isn’t easy, but it’s effective and you will spend your time wisely and make progress faster. Feeling that progress is important. It’s psychological lift of satisfaction. As long as you do the work, I know The Playbook will give the tools to feel that satisfaction everyday. 

Just meet me half way, does that sound good?

Once you tap into the core learning strategies that drive The Playbook, you’ll understand precisely what to do, how to get unstuck and keep the positive momentum going until you are ready for test day.

Introducing –– 

The RD Exam Playbook

The first  science-based blueprint to study and pass the RD Exam in 6 weeks.

FIRST LAUNCHED IN 2017
 

It’s Time to Wave Good-Bye to Unproductive Strategies

AND say hello to a more productive, progressive, and science-backed APPROACH to PREPARE for the RD Exam WITHOUT FEELING GROSS.

The RD Exam Playbook will raise your confidence, improve your memory, and help you become a more sophisticated test taker so that you pass the RD Exam faster and become the RD you set out to be.

A Quick Tour Inside The Playbook.

What’s inside.

Module One | Brain Science

Understand the four fundamental strategies that form the soul of The Playbook. We’ll explore what each strategy is, why it works and evidence that supports it’s use. You will apply these strategies to navigate your RD exam study guide in a purposeful, productive and fruitful way that gives you results. What are those results? Better memory, optimized focus and an awareness of which strategies to avoid while preparing for the RD Exam. 

What’s inside ––

Strategy #1

A strategy that if frequently cited in learning science as the #1 way to stop  “synaptic pruning”, the “use it or lose it” brain cell factor. Once applied to your study sessions, this strategy will simulate the testing enviornment and  help you manage the second-guessing syndrome on test day.

Strategy #2

Learn the process of changing topics quickly so that once you revisit the information you encourage the neural passages in your brain cells to fortify and build a  stronger memory for test day.

Strategy #3

Do you ever stop to look at billboards and large magazine spreads while driving on the highway? With this strategy, you’ll trasnform RD exam content into visual assets that reel your focus in and use your most astounding memory of all: your visual memory to double your smarts and boost your capacity to remember information visually. 

Strategy #4

Learn the importance of switching on your neurons like “Christmas lights” then circling back to review information (after a set timeline) so that you pressure your brain to retrieve information it may have forgotten.

Module Two | The “Genius Plays”

Learn how to install 7 highly-effective techniques, Genius Plays, to drill nutrition knowledge into you brain and blaze through your RD Exam study guide in less than 4 or 5 hours a day.   

You will use 4 of the 6 Genius Plays daily as they will be your primary steps in every study session. The first four Genius Plays are called The Focus Loop, because each play builds upon another; thus, creating a synergy that leads to a deeper comprehension of every nutrition topic.  

What’s inside this Module ––

  1. Reverse Engineer a Multiple Choice Question

    Use a 4-step framework to manipulate the anatomy of an RD exam Test Question and reverse engineer your way backward to study numerous topics a day –– approximately 90 to 150 if you do the math. This is a shortcut that will revolutionize the way you study over the next several weeks.

  2. Feynman’s Technique

    How to create a stack of notes that cater to your brain (not your friend’s) so that when you get stuck you have a method to clarify nutrition topics in your own language. This is. a note taking strategy developed by Dr. Feynman (physicist) which has been adapted to work with in harmony with The Focus Loop, the first four Genius Plays. 

  3. Flashcard Creation with 12 Memory Activators

    The 12 creative memory activators— codes, formulas, and detailed instructions to create flashcards that optimize your brain. Use these and watch your memory soar as high as the Eiffel Tower.

  4. Kaizen Flashcard Game (Previously named “3-Day Flashcard Game”)

    How to put your memories on autopilot by shuffling through old information and staying current with new information so that you don’t create big hairy gaps in your comprehension that make you jittery and doubtful on exam day. This is part of The Focus Loop, Genius Play #3, and it will be part of your daily action steps. 

  5. Visual Snapshots

    A 2-step process to convert keywords into pictures for at-a-glance, high-speed memory that allows you to develop mental snapshots using the help of Google Images. This is the first technique developed for Nutrition Genius and it has been loved by many future dietitians.

  6. Nutrition Assessment Mockup Chart (Graphic Organizer) 

    2 templates to organize RD exam content visually into a chart so that you can declutter information, make strong connections between different facts and ideas, and quickly compare and contrast details. This step activates your visual memory and contrast & comparison to improve your comprehension for topics within Domain Two. 

  7. Smart Switches

    6 smart switches to strategically jump back and forth between specific RD exam topics. This enables you to lock and “reload” information in your brain. Learning & memory science does not have a formal name for this, so we’ve named it Restoration Effect. This technique encourages you to forget and recapture information which builds a stronger neural connection in your brain.

The Before ––

Normally, you struggle.

Or sometimes you wish there was a faster, smarter, more impactful way to study for the exam. 

There are days you sit down to study and find your focus withering away. Other days, you answer a test question and spend several minutes debating whether the answer is correct. And some days you’re overwhelmed and confused by the amount of content you need to cover. 

What if things looked diferent?

Imagine if…

You received RD Exam advice that completely transforms the way you study.  

This advice is very different than anything you’ve ever heard before, and it trumps the common tips you’ve been told. As you apply this advice, you quickly realize that these instructions are more detailed, more practical and supported by scientific research.

You follow the  steps every day — what to do,  what to avoid and how often to do it.

As days pass on you notice that the  big hairy monster in the room (the process of studying) is now deconstructed and simplified, and you no longer drown during your study sessions. 

The After ––

Several weeks later, you’re less than 3 days away from taking the RD exam. 

You’re feeling sure-footed. You remember more information from your study guide. You’re answering your test questions with a higher accuracy and you can feel your learning gaps are closing in, day after day. 

Eventually, you think “Why spend another minute studying when I could be planning my victory celebration?” You have not even one iota of doubt in your heart. And so you say, “I’ve given this 100% and I’m ready to be an RD!” 

So, are you ready for the after?

Here’s a friendly reminder of the value you receive when you invest in The RD Exam Playbook.

Module 1: Brain Science

Four lessons on each science-based strategy, the research,  and evidence on how it works. You’ll learn precisely which Genius Play corresponds to each science-based strategy and how it will help you study your RD Exam content more efficiently.

  • Introduction (Bird’s Eye View)
  • Strategy One 22:41
  • Strategy Two 22:16

Module 2: The Genius Plays

Seven detailed (and generous) demonstrations of each Genius Play. In this module, you will learn the benefits of each play, how to use it and how to apply it.

  • Genius Play Five 48:05
  • Genius Play Six 54:57
  • Genius Play Seven 18:42
minutes of instruction

Let’s do the math.

Take a wild guess as to what the standard cost is for one hour of content?

$50.

When you purchase an online course anywhere on the internet you can expect to pay $300-$500 for a medium-size program. Let’s break down the numbers.

The RD Exam Playbook provides  ~ 354 minutes of detailed guidance. This equates to ~ 6 hours of educational instruction. The punchline? When you multiply 6 hours by $50/ one hour of content you should arrive at a total sum of $300.

Meaning –– based on the industry standard the true cost of The RD Exam Playbook is ~$300. However, for a limited time, this program this program will cost you only a small fraction of that range.

Still on the fence?

Here’s some more evidence that the principles inside The Playbook work.

I want to let you know that I have officially passed the RD exam on Thursday! Your information on how to answer questions on the exam really helped as well 🙂 It helped me how to narrow down my answers on the exam and choose the best answer. I think you should also make a video on how to answer questions on the RD exam. So far no study guide has this and I think it will be very beneficial 🙂 I hope this feedback helped. 

It feels great to have my credentials after such a struggle of getting an internship and studying to pass. I want to thank you for all your emails and encouraging words. They really gave me strength when I thought I had no hope in passing the exam. Thank you for taking the time to do what you do. I really appreciate it. Let me know if you ever need anything from me!

Hi Priyanka! I recently used your advice for the RD Exam! I love the advice you provided and wanted to share that I love your play on visual memory. As someone who loves to doodle, this comes as second nature. The material can be pretty dry and difficult to retain, but your advice made it fun. Thanks again! 🙂
