BUILT FOR YOUR STATE The core theory — science, hair, skin and nails — is the same wherever you test. On top of that, the app adds state-law questions and sections for Arizona, California, Florida, Illinois, New York, Texas, Virginia and Washington — with more states added regularly, voted on by users inside the app. WHAT'S INSIDE • 500+ exam-style multiple-choice questions with instant explanations • 400+ flip flashcards, filterable by subject • Focused study guide covering science, hair, skin, nails and state laws • Full-length mock exams with scoring and weak-spot analysis • Wrong-answer notebook that tracks what you keep missing • 4-week study plan with daily goals • Daily study reminder so you keep your streak STUDY IN YOUR LANGUAGE If English isn't your first language, most study material quietly works against you — you spend energy translating instead of learning.
