Step 12 - Prepare Your Oral Presentation  

1. Review your scientific paper and note the highlights of each part
2. Prepare your oral presentation.  For the judges this should be no longer than 3-5 minutes.  You may want to use note cards to help you prepare your presentation.
3. Practice giving your presentation. You should be able to speak to the judges without looking at your note cards. 
4. Know your project well so that you are able to answer any question the judges may ask you. 
   If you do not know the answer to a question.  Acknowledge that it is a good question and that you would have to do further research, OR that it was a question that this experiment was not designed to cover, and further experimentation would be necessary.
