Do few stalls like that.
Easier said than done - I've just got back from my SEP rating re-validation flight in a new 172 and in several configurations it really wasn't easy to persuade it to stall at all without doing quite ludicrous things to it.

I practiced short field landings in one of these recently and found that 60 over the fence worked, anything higher and it floated forever.
