What held you back

Pattern Crosswind — Heading 29.6 ° at 0 %, −5.07 points
Arrival Landing — Landing and flare profile at 0 %, Threshold speed was well above target at 93 kn. at 87 %, −3.90 points
Pattern Downwind Turn — Angle to runway (45 degrees) 23.7 °. at 35 %, −2.17 points

Top opportunity

Work on the flare

Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.
