The tools students use every night in the 30 days before their test.
Connecticut uses the Prometric 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.
Connecticut requires 100 training hours for nail technology, along with completing the Prometric exam (written only). Minimum age is 16.
Every SGS practice question is mapped to the same topic categories Prometric uses: Nail Care Procedures (Manicure, Pedicure); Health and Safety (Sanitation, Infection Control); Nail Anatomy and Disorders. Your progress dashboard shows which categories you're strong in and which need work before test day.

A frequent pitfall for Connecticut candidates is neglecting the "why" behind Nail Care Procedures. It's easy to just memorize the steps for a manicure or pedicure. However, the Prometric exam often includes scenario-based questions that test your understanding of *why* certain steps are performed, or what to do if a particular issue arises during a service. For example, knowing the correct filing technique is one thing, but understanding *why* you file in one direction to prevent splitting is another. Don't just learn the sequence; learn the purpose of each action to truly master this 35% category.
