When doing yer PFL (my achilles heel!), if too high on the approach, S-turn or sideslip to lose height?
Whichever you choose, the most important thing (after flying safely) is to tell the examiner what you are doing. Whenever you notice that you are too high / low / fast /slow etc tell the examiner that you have seen the problem and what you plan to do about it.

If it's any consolation, I screwed up the PFL during my skills test and thought I had blown it. On the way back to the airfield, the examiner pulled the throttle again and I got it right second time. Test passed.

Good luck,
