Yeah I'm 2 semesters away from graduating in dietetics. Then I have to do an internship that takes a year and then I take the board exams and become an RD. But my situation is kinda different because I got in to PA school so I'm actually postponing my last 2 semesters and going there instead. But then I'm going back and finishing up those 2 semesters and then I'm thinking that I'll do a part time internship and get my RD. One of my teachers told me that I should have an RD and PA because that would open up so many doors for me because I could not only see and treat the patients but also give nutrition advice. She said I would be highly seeked in Diabetes clinics. I live in California and I speak spanish, so she said I would be golden. But I don't know yet, I have been trying to find out more info on this from people. Do you know anyone who has done that? Because I was thinkig maybe I'll just graduate and then just go for an MPH. So how much longer you got? Take care.
