I struggle to make my circuits tighter just because of the aircraft type that I fly. I trained for my PPL on a C-152 but am now flying a PA28 Archer III.

The C-152 has barn-door sized flaps and can make quite a steep approach. The PA 28's flaps are a little more modest however and I find it very difficult to slow down and make a reasonable descent in this A/C. Does anyone else have this problem, or any tips?
