I'm in cosmetology school, and we're doing a lot of manicures lately like almost daily. my nails are sore if i push down on them. could that be why?

I believe it could: Yes, you are likely correct. You may try lightening your grip on those files and buffs or alternating grip style/fingers used if you're unable to take some time to rest.
