The best advice is to simply catch and correct the screw-ups in a timely
manner. That will cut it with most DEs assuming the screw-ups don't make
is such that "the outcome of the maneuver or flight" is in question. Few
of us fly perfect flights. The key is to keep the mistakes few and minor
and correct them promptly.

It doesn't take a perfect flight to pass a check ride. It does take
decent flying skill and sound judgment. For example, if you both an
approach such that you aren't stabilized sufficiently for landing, go
around! Trying to salvage a good landing from a bad approach typically
isn't wise and likely will lose points on the judgment front.
