Top opportunity

Hold the approach angle

Not the biggest loss in points — the one thing on this flight a check pilot would raise first, and the guide passage for it.

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.
