its ok bro you got this! we are giving everything we can. please not try to take the scores and percentiles in the mocks too seriously. just see them as practice and analysis tools. from the analysis just try to find the weak areas and then try to improve them. try giving sectionals. more than a score and percetile focus on analysis. take a break if needed and come back . you got this!dont give up!

Don't spend too much time overthinking on low scores. It hurts , that's quite natural.but don't take it to your heart.
Analyse every question that you did wrong and understand your mistake patterns. Also, see how you can improve your accuracy and question selection. From every test take atleast 2-3 learnings and try to implement it/improve them before next mocks. Your mock score is not your CAT score verdict, it is just a practice tool.

Dont compare ur scores, slowly try to beat your previous scores
