Failed today by 3 questions. Not sure what to do next…

Hey everyone. Unfortunately did not pass my exam today after studying thoroughly and intensely for 5 weeks straight. Got a 70/100… missed the mark by 3 questions. I took 12 practice exams through STC scores ranging from 73 usually - 79. I re took practice exam 1 this past Sunday and got a 91. I was feeling soo confident. I utilized series 7 dudes material a ton and Ken finnens videos like his brutal exams and power hour. They were easy for me. Come to exam day and man after the first 20 questions everything was so hard. The wording on these questions were horrible I mean I would get asked about concepts like joint tenants and survivorship which I know and then the answer choices were stuff I have never seen before describing the concept. A lot of new material as well that I have never seen before and asking questions that I’ve never even been asked in my life after doing 1500+ practice questions. Of course I get to see where I did worst in which was laws and regs… I got 16 wrong. Easy to say if I just focus on laws and regs and hammer those in I should pass no problem but I’m not sure what else there is to do other than maybe use a different vendor that my company provides me with and try that out (knopman marks). Please I would love any ideas or criticism on how to approach this test again and be confident next month. I hate having to wait 30 days to take this thing again. Thanks for all the advice that’s given.

Exam is Tuesday HELP! Am I in a good spot??

i need some advice guys please help!!! i have been taking STC practice exams for the past three weeks and have completed 11 of them. scores range probably from 73-78. I did get a 72 on my last one though unfortunately yesterday (made me super depressed). exam is Tuesday. i have done both Kens brutal exams and have scored above an 80% on both of them and they make me feel much more confident heading into the exam. im not sure what else there is to do. any other material i should focus on or if i should just stop taking practice exams. seems like the STC exams just disappoint me every time i take them. i have also watched several series 7 videos (i cant put his name in the text for some reason im sure all you know who im talking about, not series 7 videos explicitly), ken finnen videos, and have taken notes on all of them. have gone back through the whole STC guided notes and took notes on those too. i feel brunt out but im trying to stay confident. please any advice is greatly appreciated!!
