i think it's quite nice. you keep a nice relaxed steady flurry of notes while giving the bass the attention it needs.

however make sure you prepare and finish with a little more authority and poise, that is the music starts in the momments before you play and after, that 'silence' is part of the deal, make sure you give yourself sometime to begin and end (not a lot but at least a slow relaxed breath or two).

great job. what exam?

Not bad at all -don't think you'll stand up at the end in the exam though!  It sort of gave the impression you were leaving the scene of a crime -not good!   ;D

You have the piece nailed enough to pass the exam anyhow -good luck with it -
When a search is in progress, something will be found.

Very good.  YOu have done much work.    You make it look easy.   At first when you started your right foot moved nervously as if it helped you to  play the exercises but you soon stopped the nervous movement and continued with ease. I suggest you learn some pieces that even persons who are not musical will enjoy.  We are alive to inspire as many people as we can and the wider your scope the more people will enjoy what you do.
