improve score?

[qwerty123]

I've been doing number sense a couple of months now, but I'm not seeing a lot of improvement. I have completely drowned myself with packets and packets of test, but I still get a low score! I usually make it to like the 40s and sometimes 50s, but I miss (on easier tests) around 7-10 and the worst ones like 15 and I skip like 3 or 4 so I'm like in the low 100s. What kind of person misses this much! I know this is probably only me but have any of you guys ever had this experience? I'm pretty comfortable with my speed, but my arithmetic errors kill me! Any suggestions?

I remember freshman year that I practiced a bunch. Around Region time, I seriously burned myself out. Finished 12th in Region. Took a few months break, practiced some more. Got pretty good, then practiced a little over the year. By State last year I took only a couple tests a month, or even none, outside of competition day. You might have burned yourself out. Relax for a bit and come back. That might help you some.

Thanks for all the replies. I guess I need a little break... but I'll study a lot during the break though! Number sense is a skill that needs to be practiced in order to be good.
As for my name... I really don't want to say b/c I don't really want to embarrass myself with my low scores but I'll say that I go to Highland Park HS. I guess we have some good uil people here but not as good as those on this forum. what about you guys?
