Leveraging your error-log to see which types of DS questions you find slippery could be helpful. In case you've run out of Official-Guide questions, consider checking whether you can activate/access any online exclusive questions from your guide(s). You can get e-versions of different guides from the MBA website.

One key approach you can use is to practice DS untimed and make sure you're picking up on all the angles and constraints involved in the questions. Do questions one at a time, and any time you miss one, analyze what you did and log it in an error log. You'll likely find that just a few patterns underlie most of your errors.

For instance, I personally sometimes answer the question I expected to see rather than the question asked, and when I discovered that pattern, it was underlying around 30 to 50 percent of my errors in Quant.

Once you've identified the patterns underlying your errors and have learned to avoid falling into those patterns and your are achieving high accuracy, work on speeding up to test pace while maintaining high accuracy.
