The tools students use every night in the 30 days before their test.
Arkansas uses your state board exam, which requires 75% or higher to pass. Practicing at least 10% above that on SGS mock exams is the sweet spot students who pass on the first try hit.
Arkansas requires 1500 training hours for cosmetology, along with completing your state board exam (written + practical). Minimum age is 16.
Every SGS practice question is mapped to the same topic categories your state board uses: Scientific Concepts (Infection Control, Safety, Chemistry); Hair Care and Services (Cutting, Styling, Chemical); Skin Care; Nail Care and Services. Your progress dashboard shows which categories you're strong in and which need work before test day.

A frequent pitfall for Arkansas candidates is not deeply understanding the "why" behind infection control and chemical safety within the Hair Care and Services section. Many can list steps, but when presented with scenario-based questions, they struggle to apply the principles effectively. Don't just memorize disinfection times; understand *why* certain disinfectants are used for specific tools, and *why* patch tests are mandatory for chemical services. This deeper comprehension is key to acing the highest-percentage category.
