If you are flying an Airbus then congratulations, my suggestion is to gain a through knowledge of the 300 feet per nautical mile descent profile and it will not let you down.
At 10 miles you should be 3000feet, at 5 miles at 1500 feei, 2 miles 600 feet, 1 mile 300feet.
This profile has served the Industry well for many, many years and will also serve you well.
