freaking out about sie

i've been studying for the SIE for a few weeks (practice exams, content, video reviews etc) and following along with Knopman Marks which my firm gave me and I'm not seeing score improvement. I'm constantly scoring in the mid 50%, had a slight turn around when I was in the mid 60% but dropped back down and i'm freaking out. I don't know what I am doing wrong; the content isn't even confusing or difficult for me when I review it, but my score is just not improving. I want to pass on my first try so it's done before my start date but i'm getting really concerned. any advice/help would be appreciated

Series 7 Guru is also very good, I used his videos to listen to when getting ready in the morning or winding down.
