CSSD - Sports Dietetics exam-day guide
CSSD - Sports Dietetics · Prepare for the day ahead.
Your checklist
Confirm current CDR requirements
Use the current candidate materials for eligibility, scheduling, identification, permitted items, and any accommodations.
Verify the current outline link
Check the outline actually linked from CDR rather than assume a search result or old filename is current.
Review athlete-specific assessment
Connect workload, clinical history, age, food access, preferences, environment, and tolerance.
Write calculation units
Distinguish grams, millilitres, litres, milligrams, hourly rates, energy, raw yield, and usable portions.
Separate arithmetic from prescription
Use the supplied target for a calculation without assuming it is suitable for every real athlete.
Review clinical interpretation limits
Distinguish screening, diagnosis, measurement uncertainty, MNT, medication authority, and participation decisions.
Evaluate practical delivery
Check meal access, safety, cross-contact, logistics, resources, and outcomes rather than only menu totals.
Respect examination security
Use authorized resources and do not reproduce protected official questions; this bank is original educational content.
Plan the day
Confirm current CDR/provider instructions and review the actual outline against remaining knowledge and case-skill gaps.
Read the context, distinguish observed facts from assumptions, calculate with units, and select the intervention or interpretation supported by the scenario.
Follow official result instructions and document general study needs without copying protected assessment content.
Rules to check
Current CDR and testing-provider instructions govern the actual examination.
This bank does not assert an official question count, duration, fee, passing score, renewal period, or retake rule.
Scenario-specific nutrition targets and operational thresholds are not universal clinical or legal requirements.
Use appropriate evidence and role boundaries for MNT, medication, medical clearance, emergencies, and information sharing.
Protect athlete confidentiality and preserve assessment integrity.
