Open the class page for scores, who practiced, and the topics and questions the class misses most.
What your students practice
In states that use it, the NIC National Barber Theory Examination is 60 multiple-choice questions, 50 of them scored, in 90 minutes. Its content outline (candidate bulletin effective June 1, 2025) gives Scientific Concepts 35 percent (infection control, anatomy and physiology, product chemistry), Implements and Equipment 10 percent, Hair Care Services 40 percent and Facial Hair and Skin Care Services 15 percent. NIC reports a scaled score and each state board sets the pass mark, 75 in most NIC states. Some states write their own barber exam or use another testing company, and most also require a practical exam.
Tigertest's practice follows the NIC National Barber Theory Examination candidate bulletin, effective June 1, 2025 (revised September 1, 2025), checked October 2026. Students train in short sets where missed questions come back until they are mastered, then take full practice tests.

Questions teachers ask
Is the Barber class free?
Yes. Classes are free for teachers. A student in your class also gets that test's full stats and every step of it at no charge.
Do my students need accounts?
No. A student opens your class link, types the name you know them by and starts practicing. An account is optional and keeps their progress across devices.
What do I see as the teacher?
Who practiced and when, each student's practice test scores, the Barber topics the class is weakest on, and every question the class answered with how many missed it and which wrong answer they picked.
Can I use my own questions too?
Yes. Any account can turn its own material into a Tigertest quiz and limit it to one class, so only your students can play it.
