I was just wondering if anyone dyslexic has done either or both of these tests and passed them?

This is now my 4th cycle of applications and despite practicing tests before taking them, they always seem to let me down. I tend to get through the application process but then get rejected as my score wasn't enough. Also at that stage firms don't give feedback so I don't know what score I got.

I do get extra time for these assessments but even then I can't seem to pass them.

Is there anything I can do to improve or is there any technique ? I am really desperate now and am wondering if my dyslexia will be holding me back forever or whether this career may just not be for me.

Thank you in advance for any answers.
