Hello everyone, I was wondering how to go about improving my sudden drop in accuracy. My drills have been constantly improving in the past couple months. I was going from -0 to -4 out of 10 on drills. (I usually do 5 to 15 question per drills) Then these past few weeks I've noticed a significant drop, and it culminated today when I did a drill and I got a whopping -9 out of 10. The past few weeks I've noticed that suddenly when I'm drilling I'm usually going -5 to -8 out of 10 (per drill). It's getting to me.
I was wondering if some people here have experienced this kind of slide, or maybe it's something else that I'm doing or not doing. I feel frustrated that I am not improving at all.
I hope this doesn't come off as a pity party to other people, but I am hoping for some tips that helped you along the way.

I’ve written one sentence notes on sticky notes and stuck them to my computer. I don’t answer until I’ve eliminated at least two with cause. If you’re going to take a break, don’t fully step away, just do less questions over a more spread out day. Most importantly, slow down(i have to tell myself this all the time).
Step 1- take a break even if for a day…maybe longer depending on what you need.
Step 2- write out in your own words why you think each a-e is either write or wrong.
Step 3. Based off your specific weak area you are trying to improve , recent pt or recent section…
Step 4. Do not move forward until you have a MAJORRRR take away from each question that makes it all so simple.
Step 5. When I don’t get that feeling of it all makes I do not move forward from a question.
Hope this helps. I have been locked in since November 25
