Few things i've noticed if it helps:
the rookie achievement is best to do after training, you need to sell EVERY upgrade if you don't. after training you have two upgrades so if you make sure they are unequipped then launch the level and find one dino, take it down and exit.
the equiptment for tracking takes a percentage of the trophy points away for each peace
radar -25%
xray visior -25%
pathfinder -5%
beeper -25%
decoy -2%
cover scent -2%
camouflage -2%
revolver - 2%
double ammo -2%
you start with the first 2 so you are loosing half your reward.
(the weapon upgrade, M.I.S.T upgrades and player upgrades do not affect it)
I personally sold the xray and spent the extra on weapon upgrade
island one contains
13 stegosaurus & 2 ankylosaurus
so extra ammo clip helps to get that achievement for take down all on one island
the effective range on the weapon is very important. The rifle for example is 75m (great to have the radar to tell the range) and you can increase that to 150m with the range upgrade, the damage upgrade is also really helpful (great for the one hit takedown achievements)
licences can be equipped and removed if you need the blue diamond points
shooting range achievement is easy - one shot the white target on 5 of the cut outs, they are endless so take the standing still ones if needed.
the trophy room you can add 16 of any dinos, even all the same type if you need.
Aside from that the one shot kills on further away and the chain of take downs seem to affect the amount of blue points you get in my experience
