"Get the most hands-on experience that you can and don’t be afraid to jump outside your comfort zone! Your dietetic internship and master's degree are the best places to receive feedback that is crucial to becoming the best dietitian you can be....It is very important to soak up every bit of knowledge that you can and hold on to it. Because in the end, your GPA or a test score does not define how you help patients, it's your knowledge and critical thinking."- Josie Diekemper, Dietetic Internship '17, MS '18
