For what it's worth. If you are a student pilot you should be asking your instructor. You should not be pissing around with speeds etc without discussing the possible consequences with your instructor. To ask a question on a web forum that IS a life or death subject is bloody stupid. You may as well ask some guy you met down the pub.
Who, exactly, is your mother going to blame when you cock up a landing & pile in based on your interpretation of the advice you get here?
Edit: I note that most replies are saying "land as slow as possible". This is correct, 1.3Vs correct. But your instructor is training you to be SAFE from yourself at this time.
Once you have the licence & some time you will be able to play around safely with some experience behind it.
Frinstance my a/c (tailwheel) has a stall speed of 40kts. I landed it the other day at 38kts. no wind, no turbulence, no drama.
