ast83, there are obviously multiple manuals that deal with the scenario and they are all up for interpretation, e.g. OM-A says about Go-around:

A Go-Around shall also be made:

- If the success of the approach becomes doubtful, e.g. approach not stabilised by 500 ft AAL (300 ft AAL after circling), required elements of the landing threshold not clearly identified, etc.

or...

- If below 1,000 ft AAL, any significant departure from the normal approach path occurs and corrective action is not immediately effective.

(my bold)

I guess for a checkride you'd be home safe if you applied it conservatively.
