Failed my real estate exam twice — what am I missing in my study approach?

I'm at my wit's end. I've taken the state licensing exam twice now and failed both times by like 5-7 points. I'm not bombing it — I'm just barely missing the cut, which almost feels worse? First attempt I scored a 68 when I needed a 75, second time a 71. I've been using a study guide from my pre-licensing course but honestly I think it's too surface-level.

The sections killing me are property ownership and rights (I always mix up the different types of deeds and easements) and property management stuff around landlord-tenant law. I tried the Real Estate Property Ownership & Rights practice test last week and realized I had some real gaps I didn't even know about — like I thought I understood fee simple but the nuanced questions tripped me up completely.

For those who passed on a second or third attempt — what finally clicked? Did you change your study method, focus on specific exam tips, or just grind more practice tests? My third attempt is in 6 weeks and I really can't afford another $100 retake fee.
