I have had several instructors, and they each had a few things different.

One would want you to do a 'TTT' at each turn... Turn, Trim, Talk. Why I don't know.

Another would want you to do the BUMFFPITCHH check only on the downwind leg, some let you do that as you approach the Overhead.

One would want you to keep the carb heat on after the Pre-landing Checks
another wanted it on only when you reduce the throttle.

Some seem more sensitive to errors, and take over at the slightest indiscretion, others would let you bounce all the way down the runway, if you felt the need to.

Post PPL you have only the Bi-Annual flight to worry about.
