CAT is not about solvibg quantitatively but about qualitatively. When you give mock, make sure you do indepth root analysis of mistakes you make and check whether yhe approach you make is coreect, whether there is another approach which saves time. Make sure you jot down all such mistakes to not repeat them again. You need to check which is area of weakness and why are you scoribg negative. Check how much time you devote on average. Then focus on those areas more, try to sokve multiple problems on your weak areas through different books like Arun Sharma, Nishit Sinha, TIME Coaching material. Give more mocks on it and eventually you'll optimize mistakes and achieve better accuracy ratio.

It is not about scoring good or poor in the mocks but how much time you put in analysing your mocks matters. A proper analysis takes upto 2 hours and therfore the reason could be this.

Avoid taking less pressure and shift your negative stress to a postive one in which you motivate yourself to challenge next high score than the before.

So where all you went wrong and which all are your weak areas and what are your strengths you should be getting this by giving mocks.

Aim at working on speed and accuracy of minimum 65 percent of the paper and hence you will be close to 90's and above.

Also practice previous year sample papers and attempt them like regularly so that in any case there is chance of question repetition then you have a hand over it.

Good Luck!
