If you had done 57 PTs and reviewed the bibles couple times, it's hard to imagine what could have possibly gone wrong.
What score were you getting on your PTs?

What limited you from pulling your avg PT score above 172? Were there any sections where you were consistently getting problems wrong? I'm asking this because your preparation (in terms of quantitiy) seems more than enough, but may be there was something wrong about how you approached your PTs.

Secondhand advice, but: Do Logic games, even ones you have already done, over and over and over. Especially ones you have already done. You will start to have a stronger sense of identifying the inferences, and doing so quickly.

You shouldn't get any lg wrong once your at that level. So focus on that. Retake tests to keep your timing up.
