Why do I feel like I'm the only one not improving?

So I've been studying since January, with my studying getting more intense after May. My diagnostic was a 159 but every PT I've taken has remained at around a 156. The only time I broke into the 160s was during an untimed PT, and I'm starting to panic. Every other person I've seen talk about their progress has seemingly improved, sometimes in a shorter amount of time than I've been studying, so I'm really confused as to how improvement seems so much easier for everyone else. I even got a tutor, and I still haven't seen much change. How do I learn from my wrong answers, because every problem feels so situational? Can anyone please help :(

Once I see answer choices like these my brain legit stops working and I panic. Then I start reading the questions and answers over and over again until I'm so afraid of wasting time that I quickly have to choose whatever makes the most sense in my scrambled head. Can someone give any tips on how to do these types of problems when on a time crunch :(

I had B but changed to A because I thought even if it IS easier today to domesticate doesn't necessarily mean we'll be successful with achieving domestication. But if we tried numerous amounts of times to domesticate and still haven't achieved it then maybe it is too difficult. And if we didn't try to domesticate every animal then how are we to say that domesticating it is not worth it. I'm definitely overthinking all of these questions because for all of them I've had the right answer then switched. Help!

I spent ALMOST SEVEN MINUTES trying to figure this one out and somehow got it right. I'm happy but also damn there's no way I'm going to have enough time on the test if these keeping taking me this long to decipher and its making me really nervous.

#help

Hey! So I've been reviewing these flaw lessons since these are the questions I am getting wrong most frequently, and I was wondering if just memorizing these rules would be helpful. I somewhat understand why these are wrong depending on the context, but if I memorize these rules to look for key terms chained together would it be wrong to assume that I'd be able to get them right more frequently while saving time from reading the whole question?

Sorry if that made absolutely no sense btw lol :0

I originally chose C but ruled it out because I thought the word "discontinued" implied that they were never going to practice the tradition again, which is not what was going to happen in the otter situation. But I get why it's right now.
