pretty good scores tbh
1) are all these mocks from the same institutes ?
2) find the mistakes about what is happening - how were you able to score in different sections and knowing why you are not able to score right now
3) you might tend to forget topics you have studied if you dont revise , especially in qa
4) might be having difficulty solving questions under time pressure - try to fix it , try to make your mind calm
5) do sectionals as well rather than doing full length mocks - 40 minutes with proper concentration for a single section
6) around 20 full length mock will be good enough from now on ( somewhere around 1 mock per 4 days )

Scores will keep fluctuating just analyse them well , around 20-30 mocks would suffice until the exam

You are doing good , it happens with the scores sometimes but eventually you will perform well as your initial mocks.
