Most ear training tells you to get 100% before you move on. I think that rule is the reason your ear stopped improving.
When you repeat one drill until you score perfectly, you usually are not training your ear. You are teaching your brain to predict a sequence it has already heard. The score goes up. The skill does not.
What works better is uncomfortable: move through the material, do not stop for perfection, and come back around. The second pass catches what you missed. The third pass is where it becomes yours.
This is not a sales pitch. It is the thing I wish somebody had told me before I spent years grinding single drills.
