Q: Macbook Pro 13'' retina battery only last 3 hours?

Hi, I've had my macbook pro since the middle of summer in 2014 and its only about a year and a half old.  I am very concerned as the battery life this semester of college for me has seemed very short and I don't know why or when the problem started to arise.  At a max full charge it will only range from 2 hours and 40 minutes to 3 hours.   For example I just worked on a paper for less than an hour from full health and its back to 80% just by browsing and using word.  I have about 250 battery cycles, and according to coconut battery I have 85% battery health so I feel it should be lasting closer to the 7 hour range apple advertises. Please let me know of any advice, it is greatly appreciated!
