I am not sure I can raise my CELPIP score

[llst11]

Hello everyone, I hope everybody in this forum is having a great Friday night.

Personally, I wish I am having a good Friday night, but sadly my mood is bit down right now.

Because I heard from my employers today that they cannot apply for LMIA for me.

So I lost additional 50 points on my CRA, and now my current score is 427 which is considerably low score since recent minimum ITA scores been between 440~450.

I only took CELPIP once before on last November, and scores were L11 R12 S8 W7.

My NOC class is B, so they are above requirement, but I really like to increase speaking and writing scores to both 9, so I can have CRA score above 450.

However, I am not sure I can make that happen. Yes, it might be sound pathetic, I lost my confidence on my English ever since I received my CELPIP scores.
I grew up in US and went to a university in Canada for 3 years, so I was full of confidence that I am good at English, but apparently, I overestimated myself.

Now I have to face the fact that I need to retake the test, but I have not even determined which test I will take.
I need study too, but I do not know where do I have to start and what to do to make improvements.
I am just running away from a reality that chasing me like a wuss, and reality is getting bigger and bigger becoming a horror that haunting me.
