Good GOD what kind of musical assholes are on here anyway?! Look lady, you play beautifully! The biggest problem with this so called "monster" is that everyone who critiques you makes you afraid to even start! Take all comments with a grain of salt and ignore anyone here who does not begin with GREAT JOB! Congratulations, you'll be winning a job soon! Eeeshh, some people!
It's still really impressive, but yes, tons of missed notes. Practicing really slowly to ensure perfect intonation may be the next step. The Don Juan is a monster, after all. :\
Your intonation is pretty good. I did notice the E in measure 2 & the B in m. 12. Of course the G 16th note arpeggio is hard! Nice double stops. I like the natural weight of your bow arm! I would make more use of differing bow placements between the bridge and fingerboard. About the tempo, when you slow down, it is commonly where other recordings slow down as well; it seems like you were just being musical to me because you picked up the tempo right afterwards. Good job!
Very well played. You have an excellent command of this excerpt. I have a few comments, though.
My first suggestion is to sustain the sound more on longer notes. Try to make the sound as continuous as possible. This is one of the key things judges look for in this excerpt. For example, the E to G# in measure 11 could have used a bit more connection.
Also, the accented sixteenth notes need more bite to suit the character of the piece. Finally, keep the crescendi at measures 24, etc. in mind.

I think you loose the musical tension in every end of the phrase. When you have a pause, I get the impression that the tempo slows down.
On the other hand, I think you have some very remarkable technical skills!
