Progress bar not adequately showing progress

I have a 33 question survey broken into 12 blocks. However, the progress bar is not accurately reflecting the respondent's position in the survey. When you get to the final block (demographics), the bar still only shows about 50% completed even though they are literally at the very end. This is causing people to drop out because they think the survey is much longer than it really is. Any suggestions to fix this?
Thanks

    You can use the code from here to show desired progress bar percentage on the demographics questions

    As a less technical solution that I use, you can create a couple new blocks with some static text that state their percentage complete after each section as a way to encourage them through the survey.
