PRC Room Assignments (Nutritionist-Dietitian Exam – Aug 2019)
If you see a “Now Available!” note beside the exam venue, it means the PRC already released the list for that province or city and you may now view the room assignment. If it is not yet available, the PRC is still finalizing the school and classroom details. We will update this post once the official Room Assignments are released.
Here are additional useful tips we suggest you follow before the exam.
1. You’ll notice that even in just one school, several buildings and classrooms will be used as testing centers. To make sure that you proceed to the correct location, write down and take note of the exact Building, Classroom, and Seat Number assigned to you.
2. Before the day of the board exam, find out the address of the school or venue where you’ll be taking the exam. Research the actual location using Google Maps or a guide map to determine how to get there.
3. Better yet, try visiting the venue a few days before the board exam! Doing so will help you discover the best transportation or routes to take. If you simulate going to the venue beforehand, you’ll also have an idea how long it will take you to reach the exam center from your place. This allows you to change your transportation plans, if needed.
4. On the day of the exam, don’t be late! According to the PRC, examinees who will be late will NOT BE ALLOWED to take the board exam. We suggest you arrive at the exam venue at least one (1) hour before the start of the exam. This gives you enough time to locate the building, classroom, and seat number assigned to you.
What happens if you did not show up or weren’t able to take the boards? The answer is in this article: I registered but I did not take the board exam.

Tips to Pass the Nutritionist-Dietitian Exam
Do you want some tips to help you pass the Nutritionist-Dietitian exam?
Without a doubt, passing the Nutritionist-Dietitian Licensure Exam requires tons of preparation, hard work, persistence, and determination. You will surely do your part. You will study long hours, read a lot of books, and answer hundreds of pages of reviewers.
But do you want to hear useful tips, this time straight from those who already passed the Nutritionist-Dietitian boards? Here’s our collection of the best insights and tips from Nutritionist-Dietitian passers and topnotchers themselves!
Check out and adopt the following tips which we compiled from various websites and Facebook groups!
Tip #1: Make a study schedule.
I’m a big scheduler. I use my Google calendar (you can also use a paper planner!) to mark down every task I need to do in a day, and I block out chunks of time to complete them. So I did the same thing when creating a schedule to study for my exam. I determined what days I’d be covering which domains, and which practice questions I was slated to take. My schedule for that month was eat, sleep, study, and go to Pilates!
Tip #2: Start with the domain that’s most challenging.
I have a natural interest in food science but not one in food service management. So I started with the domains that I needed the most help in. I wanted to get to everything, but my theory was that if I ran out of time, then I’d be shorting the material I was already somewhat comfortable with.
Tip #3: Test yourself on the go.
I liked having the Registered Dietitian Exam Prep on my phone because it allowed me to answer study questions when I had a few moments waiting for a train or a doctor’s appointment. The RD practice exam questions it contains are very helpful. I also mixed up where I studied, going to different coffee shops every day to get out of my apartment.
Tip #4: Pack a fueling test-day breakfast.
This is a no-brainer for anyone studying nutrition, but sometimes stress makes your forget important things! I scheduled my RD exam for first thing in the morning and took a Greek yogurt parfait with me. I had a few minutes to relax outside, eat breakfast, and review my notes prior to the test.
Prayer for Nutritionist-Dietitian Board Exam Takers
“Almighty Father,
Guide me and be with me as I take this exam
Inspire me to be calm, confident, and clever.
Help me concentrate and clear my mind
Remove my anxiety and relieve me of stress.
Grant me the wisdom to remember what I studied
And discernment to know the answers that are right.
Provide me strength to pass this challenge
Help me conquer this exam.
I now lay down before you my nerves and fears
Please endow me your peace and warm my heart.
I pray for my success in this exam
All for the glory of God.
Amen.”
