Your scores are very good. Keep it up. I passed L1 in June with all but Quant > 70s. I had slightly lower scores than yours on Schweser tests. CFAI samples were actually very easy. The real exams were closer to CFAI mock exams. Make sure you do the CFAI mock exams at least a week before the real exam and review them thoroughly.
