0:09Hi everyone, welcome to this new video.
0:11So this is going to be a video about
0:13the Dietetics BTS. I hope you're going
0:15to like it. Let's get started. So I'm
0:33back with a new video on the Dietetics
0:35BTS. So if you haven't seen the first
0:37video, I invite you to watch it. I'll
0:39put it in the info bar if you want.
0:41This first video is really important
0:43because I talk to you about the
0:44Dietetics BTS in general, like the
0:46subjects, the difficulty, and the
0:47internships. Anyway, I talk about
0:49everything in a general way, and I was
0:51in my first year, so I didn't have the
0:53same perspective as I do now. Now,
0:54I’m mainly going to answer the
0:56questions you asked me following that
0:57last video. So, it's been about a year
0:59since I filmed that video. You should
1:01know that I've received messages via
1:03Instagram, via YouTube, in private
1:04messages, everywhere. It's true that I
1:06wasn't able to answer everyone because
1:08some questions were a bit complicated,
1:09so I tried to sort through all the
1:10questions I had. I even did a little
1:12FAQ on my Instagram. So I picked out
1:14the main questions that were asked. I
1:16wrote them down on my phone. I’m
1:18going to answer as many as possible and
1:20try to be clear and precise in what I
1:21say. I hope this will help many of you.
1:24I’ll try to make YouTube videos about
1:25the thesis once I’ve finished it.
1:27I’ll try to talk to you about
1:28everything because, honestly, I find
1:30there are very few YouTube videos on
1:31this BTS, and it really lacks
1:33information. First question. Where can
1:35you take a Dietetics BTS? I already
1:37answered this question a bit in my old
1:39video. So, the BTS can be done in a
1:40private or public school, or remotely
1:43with CNED, etc. Public is free, but
1:45there will be a pre-selection on
1:46Parcoursup; private is if you pay, and
1:49it’s very, very expensive and not
1:51necessarily well-regarded because it's
1:53just people who want to get it by
1:55paying. And remotely, it can be a bit
1:56complicated, but it’s also an option.
1:58So there you go, those are the three
2:00ways to get a Dietetics BTS. Second
2:02question, how long does it last? The
2:04BTS lasts 2 years. It might move to 3
2:06years because there are rumors that it
2:08is supposed to go to 3 years. I think
2:10it's mainly because there's an enormous
2:11amount of things to learn in 2 years.
2:13Really, it's very, very massive. I like
2:15the fact that it's over 2 years because
2:17at least it's quite fast, but it's true
2:19that I think the success rate would be
2:20higher if it were 3 years. 3rd question
2:22, are you thinking about continuing
2:24your studies? I think I won't continue
2:26because I already find this BTS to be
2:27very good and very complete. There are
2:29quite a few people who want to
2:31specialize in sports, for example, or
2:33in specific nutrition for people or
2:34specific diets. I find that dietetics
2:36is already huge and that it's already
2:38incredible. I honestly love it. I'm not
2:40going to go any further. I know that we
2:41can already work in hospitals; we can
2:43work a little bit everywhere. I find
2:44that a BTS in dietetics is more than
2:46enough. There are plenty of people who
2:48want to work in the food industry, for
2:49example, afterward, but not me. So, I
2:51don't intend to continue my studies
2:52right after this. 4th question, the
2:54sectors where we can practice. There's
2:56the hospital; we can also practice in
2:58private practice. In the food industry,
3:00as I told you, we can work for example
3:02for Danone or all companies like that,
3:03actually, that need dietitians. You
3:05know, on the back of bottles and
3:06everything, it says dial such-and-such
3:08number to be able to talk to a
3:09dietitian. Well, there you go, we can
3:10work there. We can also work in
3:12pharmacies. And right now, I don't have
3:13other ideas off the top of my head, but
3:14I think there are other sectors like
3:16that, actually. The most difficult
3:17subject? Well, I find that in the 2nd
3:19year, the most difficult subject for me
3:21is physiopathology and also therapeutic
3:23dietetics. These two subjects are
3:25difficult for me because we don't do
3:27therapeutic dietetics in the first year
3:29, at least in my school. So, it's a new
3:30subject and it's complicated because
3:32we've never seen it before. It's a
3:34whole technique, like when you prepare
3:35for your French baccalaureate exam
3:36where they tell you there's a technique
3:37and you have to follow that technique;
3:39well, it's the same here. It's a
3:40technique for the BTS, so there is
3:41really a process that must be followed
3:43perfectly. There you go, I had a lot of
3:44trouble with this subject. It's getting
3:46better. And physiopathology is actually
3:48like medical classes, actually, on
3:49drugs, on diseases, in fact. You will
3:51see many diseases. It made me a bit
3:53stressed because, honestly, I don't
3:54like illnesses. I don't like hearing
3:56about diseases. You're going to hear
3:57about a lot of diseases. Every disease
3:59of the esophagus, stomach, pancreas—
4:00all the diseases, actually everything
4:02in the digestive tract, you’ll have
4:03to deal with it. If you’re a bit of a
4:05hypochondriac, this isn't for you, I
4:07swear, it’s not for you. Definitely
4:08don't do it, because honestly, you’ll
4:10only hear things that make you feel
4:11like you're sick all the time. Every
4:13time, you’ll feel like you have some
4:14symptom. So you’ll say to yourself, "
4:16Oh my god, I have this disease and
4:17everything." I swear that I am a bit of
4:19a hypochondriac, and this training is
4:21very difficult for me. Honestly, be
4:22careful, it's extremely medical. It’s
4:25super medical. The most difficult year
4:27was the second year because that’s
4:29when these two subjects are introduced,
4:30which are different from the first year
4:32. In the first year, we're more focused
4:35on food and nutrition, whereas here
4:37we're much more focused on diseases and
4:38medicine. Actually, I find that the
4:40second year is harder. Plus, in the
4:42second year, we have three internships,
4:43so it’s much more intense. There's
4:45the thesis to write, and everything
4:46else, all the exams. Second year, for
4:48me, is harder. Is working privately a
4:50good idea? To me, it's a good idea if
4:52you have the means to afford an office.
4:54But you should know it's quite
4:55difficult because there are a lot of
4:56dietitians in Paris, where I live.
4:58There are quite a few dietitians on
4:59Doctolib. You won’t necessarily be
5:01the person who appears first, and there
5:03aren't necessarily tons of people who
5:04want nutritional consultations.
5:06Especially since it's not reimbursed.
5:08You might have a bit of trouble making
5:09a place for yourself in the market
5:10because you'll have competition.
5:12Honestly, private practice is a good
5:13idea but should be combined with
5:14something else. You can't make a living
5:16with private practice, even if you can
5:18set whatever rates you want, it's not
5:20regulated, and you can't set your
5:21consultation at € 150 because nobody
5:23will come see you. Private practice is
5:25a bit complicated; I think it's a good
5:27idea if you already have the funds to
5:28open an office and do it part-time.
5:30Pros and cons of working in a hospital.
5:32The advantage is that you have a fixed
5:34salary each month, unlike private
5:35practice where you don't have a fixed
5:37salary. In a hospital, I would say
5:39another advantage is that you have
5:40patients with actual medical conditions
5:42. So it can be more interesting than
5:44private practice. In private practice,
5:45it's mostly patients who just want to
5:47lose weight and aren't really sick. So
5:48it's less interesting, a bit more
5:50monotonous. Do you see what I mean?
5:51Whereas the hospital is going to be a
5:53bit more varied. You'll have a bit of
5:54every possible disease, but the
5:56disadvantage of the hospital is that
5:57you can't set your own rates, whereas
5:59in private practice, you can. In a
6:00hospital, there are set hours, while in
6:02private practice, there aren't; in a
6:03hospital, you're on the computer a lot,
6:05and it's teamwork. Whereas private
6:07practice is a rather solitary job. I
6:09don't really like teamwork, which is
6:10why I list it as a disadvantage. There
6:12are people who really like working in a
6:13team; it can be an advantage or a
6:14disadvantage. Do you recommend any
6:16books on dietetics? I don't necessarily
6:18have books on dietetics or the BTS
6:20dietetics program in general, but I
6:22have a few things to recommend. It's
6:24the "Little Book of Slimming." It
6:25sounds a bit cliché put that way, but
6:27it's not at all. Actually, it's a
6:28booklet where you have the nutritional
6:30composition of tons of things. I don't
6:32know if you can see, but for example,
6:34for a Mars bar, a 50g Mars bar is 226
6:36calories. So much protein, so much fat.
6:39When you have a patient who tells you,
6:40"Yeah, I eat two rusks with a teaspoon
6:42of jam." You can look in there, you
6:44don't have to search forever.
6:45Everything is written in it, and when
6:46you don't know, for example, how much a
6:47rusk weighs, well, you have the weight
6:49right there. This book costs € 3 at
6:50Fnac, and honestly, I think it's very,
6:52very good. It's a good investment; it
6:54was recommended to me during my
6:55clinical internship because all the
6:57dietitians have it, and I think it's
6:58just great. You even have things like
7:00Picard chestnut and ceps soup; you
7:02really have everything. It's so
7:04practical. I 100%recommend this little
7:06booklet, it's so useful. And then, I
7:08have a book about the kidneys because
7:10I'm doing a clinical internship in a
7:11hospital, specifically in the
7:12nephrology department, so it's about
7:14the kidneys. And I have lots of things
7:16about all kinds of diseases. I think
7:17it's really great. It’s kind of a
7:19gadget, really, to help you out during
7:21your internship. Personally, it helped
7:22me a lot because they asked for a lot
7:24of information I didn't know. Just so,
7:26so good. I recommend little books like
7:28this, not necessarily focused on
7:29dietetics, but rather on medicine and
7:30pathology, because as I told you, it's
7:32a subject I struggle with. So, little
7:33things like this help me out. And next,
7:35something I recommend is this. It's a
7:37BMI indicator based on height. You set
7:40the height you want and the weight you
7:41want, and it actually tells you your
7:43BMI, whether you're malnourished, obese
7:45, or have moderate obesity. And it's
7:47just so great because it helps you
7:49figure out the BMI without needing a
7:50calculator. So it's really super. If
7:52you're in a consultation and need to
7:54know quickly, you have this, and it's
7:56just great. You can even show it to
7:57your patient like, "Look, if you reach
7:59this weight, you'll no longer be
8:01overweight or malnourished." So it's
8:03fantastic. If you search online for "
8:05BMI calculator wheel," you'll find it.
8:07It must cost less than € 1. Is there
8:09a difference between a dietitian and a
8:10nutritionist? Well, yes, "nutritionist"
8:12is not a regulated title. Anyone can
8:14say "I am a nutritionist," whereas a
8:16dietitian is someone who has completed
8:17a two-year degree, like a BTS or a DUT
8:19—I don't remember exactly. For a
8:21nutritionist, you just need a one-week
8:22training course and you can be a
8:23nutritionist. Really, there's nothing
8:25regulated about it. And it really
8:26should be regulated, because it's not
8:28right that there are sort of charlatans
8:30who claim to be nutritionists and make
8:31you think they're dietitians when
8:32they're not at all. Do I have any
8:34advice for finding an internship? I
8:36advise you to find an internship as
8:37early as possible. If you can find a
8:39clinical internship, like the
8:40second-year internships, during your
8:42first year, that's just brilliant.
8:43Sometimes you might not find one, but
8:45in my case, my teacher found one for me
8:46. She didn't find one for everyone,
8:48though. If you can find an internship
8:49in your first year, that's perfect.
8:51Find out the dates for your second-year
8:53internship and try to secure one,
8:54because many interns are calling the
8:56hospital where I am, and everything is
8:58booked for the next year or two. Get
9:00started super early. And for food
9:02service internships, you can start a
9:04bit later; it’s not a big deal.
9:06It’s the first year, so obviously you
9:07look into it during your first year. To
9:09find one, well, I advise you to prepare
9:11at least 2 or 3 months in advance
9:13because otherwise, it gets a bit tight.
9:15What should you review before food
9:17service internships? I would say you
9:18should focus on economics and
9:19management. In your thesis, you will
9:21have to talk a little bit about
9:22management and economics. Hygiene, so
9:24everything regarding forward movement,
9:26all the things you see in hygiene, that
9:28is super important. GEMRCN, so
9:29everything related to nutrition,
9:31that’s the bulk of what I think you
9:33need to review for nutrition
9:34internships. What should you review
9:36before clinical internships? I would
9:37say pathophysiology, the subject I
9:39mentioned with all the diseases and
9:40everything. That is super important
9:42because otherwise, you'll be a bit
9:44stuck; personally, I’m glad I knew a
9:45few things about the kidneys, otherwise
9:47I would have been completely lost.
9:49Obviously, you are in an internship to
9:51learn, so it’s normal if you don't
9:52know everything, but you still need to
9:54know quite a lot about pathophysiology
9:56as well. You need to know things about
9:57nutrition, all the vitamins, and all
9:59the required quantities. You must be up
10:01to speed on dietary rations and know
10:02all your quantities. If you are in your
10:04second year, you know what that is. But
10:05if you are in your first year, you
10:06don't know what that is yet. You really
10:08need to be up to speed, I would say on
10:09everything, actually. Everything except
10:11economics. You don't need economics.
10:13English either; you don't need it.
10:14Those are somewhat optional subjects
10:16for the clinical internship. But really
10:18otherwise, yeah, I would say
10:20pathophysiology and clinical dietetics,
10:22or doing your clinical internships in
10:24hospitals, simply at the APHP. You can
10:26also do them in clinics. There must
10:28absolutely be a dietitian there at all
10:29times. You can do it at the Red Cross,
10:31it seems to me, and that’s about it
10:32actually. What are my grade averages?
10:34In the first year, I had an average of
10:36about 15. It was around that. And in
10:38the second year, it went down to about
10:4012. So I had a big drop because I
10:43really struggled with pathophysiology
10:45and therapeutic dietetics. I told you
10:47those were two complicated subjects for
10:48me. On top of that, I didn't like those
10:50subjects. Actually, I didn't like them
10:52at all. And now, thanks to my
10:53internship, I've had a sort of
10:54revelation that I love them. Actually,
10:55for now, I have poor grades, let's say,
10:57in my second year. How many internships
10:58are there in total? In my first video,
11:00I said there were only four internships
11:02because I was misinformed, but actually
11:03, there are two in the first year, two
11:05in catering, and three in the second
11:06year. In the second year, you have two
11:08therapeutic internships, so in
11:10hospitals with dietitians. And for the
11:12third internship in the second year,
11:13you have an optional internship. So "
11:15optional" doesn't mean it's not
11:17mandatory; "optional" just means you
11:19have a choice. You have to find a
11:21facility where there is no dietitian.
11:24So it's up to you to educate the people
11:25and talk to them about nutrition and
11:27physiology. Anything you've learned
11:29related to dietetics, you can do it in
11:31schools, you can do it basically
11:33anywhere, it's really not bad. It's an
11:35extra internship, and I still haven't
11:36found mine. You can do it in gyms, you
11:38can do it almost anywhere. It's an
11:40internship called "optional" and it
11:42lasts maybe 3 or 4 weeks. Which
11:44internship did you prefer? I literally
11:46preferred the hospital internship
11:47because in the catering internships, I
11:49was just doing cooking. I didn't like
11:51that too much. It was really
11:52cafeteria-style, you know what I mean?
11:54In a hospital, we really put into
11:56practice what we learned, and we learn
11:57so many things and see so many patient
11:59cases. It's incredible. I swear, I am
12:01so happy during this internship, like,
12:02I'm learning so much stuff. It's crazy.
12:04How does the exam work? There's an exam
12:06at the end in June where you have a bit
12:09of all the subjects: biochemistry,
12:10physiology, food science, nutrition,
12:12all of that. You have two English exams
12:14that are around March or April. Well,
12:16for me, it started in January. You have
12:19listening comprehension and oral
12:20expression. So those are two different
12:22English exams. Actually, you have
12:24culinary techniques. So, same thing,
12:26it's around March. I'm actually graded
12:28by my teacher, so it's our teacher who
12:29teaches culinary techniques who will
12:31grade us for the exam. Culinary
12:32techniques, that's cooking, and it's in
12:35March. And you have the thesis, which
12:37is in September. You actually have to
12:38present your thesis. There are lots of
12:40steps for the BTS; it's not all in June
12:42. Are we allowed to use a calculator?
12:44Not for everything. It seems to me that
12:45for biochemistry, we aren't allowed.
12:47But afterwards, I think we are allowed.
12:48In any case, there is one subject where
12:50we aren't allowed a calculator. And a
12:51related question: do you have to be
12:53good at math to study dietetics? So no,
12:55no need to be good at math, it's not
12:57worth it. You are allowed a calculator
12:58for most things. I'm not very good at
13:00math and I'm here, so not necessarily.
13:02Is it okay if I didn't take the S
13:04stream? There are plenty of people who
13:06took S2S who end up in the dietetics
13:07BTS. It's a little harder for them.
13:09There are quite a few dropouts. I
13:10advise you to come from S because I
13:12come from S. I know S doesn't exist
13:13anymore. I advise you to have at least
13:15taken life sciences, maybe physics, if
13:17you come from a literary background and
13:18all. Well, that's a bit complicated,
13:20and if you come from a vocational
13:21baccalaureate, it will be a bit
13:22difficult for you, but it's not
13:23impossible, frankly, it's not
13:24impossible. Is it a good idea to take
13:26distance learning courses? I didn't
13:28take distance learning courses, so I
13:29couldn't really tell you, but I've had
13:31quite a few testimonials from people
13:33who did. So these are people,
13:34dietitians who are in the hospital, and
13:36they told me that it was actually
13:37rubbish. I don't want to tell you it's
13:39rubbish. That doesn't come from me.
13:40It's people who told me they had bad
13:42experiences. There you go. I'm sharing
13:43their experience with you. They're a
13:45bit lost, actually, they have no point
13:46of reference. It's a little bit
13:48complicated. I don't recommend distance
13:49learning, unless you have a phobia of
13:51people. If you have issues or simply
13:53cannot travel, distance learning can be
13:55a solution, but try to consider high
13:57school or private schools first; avoid
13:59distance learning. Where do you want to
14:01work? That's the last question.
14:03Basically, I wanted to work in private
14:04practice. I don't really like having a
14:06team of dietitians with me. I really
14:07wanted to be in private practice. That
14:09was really my first idea. Since doing
14:10my therapeutic internship in a hospital
14:12, I've fallen in love with the concept.
14:14Do you understand? I think I love it.
14:15Honestly, I feel like it's an
14:17investigation. You have the whole
14:18patient file, you have all their lab
14:20results, you have to think. Should I
14:22give them more potassium, or some meds
14:23for this and that? I think it's just so
14:25great. It made me change my mind. I
14:27think I would really like to apply to a
14:29hospital. Working part-time at a
14:30hospital and part-time in private
14:31practice, I’d love doing both.
14:33Working in the food industry? Not at
14:35all, honestly. The hairnet and safety
14:37shoes are everything I hate. No thanks.
14:39Working in a pharmacy is boring because
14:41talking only about meds and supplements
14:42doesn't appeal to me that much. Between
14:44hospital and private practice, I want
14:46both. I hope you enjoyed this video and
14:48that it helped you. I will surely do a
14:50part 2. If you have other questions
14:52about the BTS Dietetics, don't hesitate
14:53to leave comments with any questions I
14:55haven't answered. That way, I'll make a
14:57second video and all that. As you saw,
14:59this FAQ was much more targeted towards
15:02post-BTS life, a bit more specific.
15:04It's really not a video about the big
15:05picture. I invite you once again to
15:07watch my first video about the BTS
15:09Dietetics. It's much more general and
15:11much less specific, actually. I hope
15:12you enjoyed it. Don't hesitate to
15:14subscribe to my Instagram account. I'm
15:16super active on social media. I talk to
15:18you about a bit of everything and
15:19nothing from my life. If you want to
15:20learn more about me, don't hesitate.
15:22I'll put my Instagram right here. Above
15:23all, don't hesitate to subscribe to my
15:25YouTube channel, it makes me really
15:27happy, and like the video. Sending you
15:28big kisses and I'll see you soon for a
15:30future video. Bye bye.
