Shorten the long landing
Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 10,027 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 3,203 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Overall, your approach speed and touchdown rate were quite good, which shows that you have a strong foundation to build upon. However, there are definitely areas that could use improvement, such as glideslope alignment, height at threshold, and landing flare. Working on these aspects will help you achieve a smoother and more controlled landing in the future. Additionally, focusing on reducing touchdown distance and improving runway alignment during touchdown and rollout will also enhance your overall performance. Keep practicing and learning from each landing experience to continue growing as a pilot. You've got this!
