What went well

Touched down at -306 fpm — a soft arrival
Touchdown 1,292 ft in — inside the full-score zone
1.38 G at touchdown — inside band

What held you back

Enroute Descent — 250 kt exceeded below 10,000 ft, then overspeed warning; speed limits at 60 %, −1.07 points
Arrival Landing — Threshold speed was excessively high at 122 kt. at 47 %, −0.63 points
Departure Climb 3 — bank angle up to 18.5 ° at 57 %, −0.58 points

Top opportunity

Slow the descent speed

Enroute Descent

Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.
