Suggestions from TAs:

Persuasive and Choice Presentations should be 8-10 minutes.

Be professional in your presentations.  Assume you are giving your presentation to strangers rather than friends.

Be aware you are expected to be in lab on time (a few minutes early), and remain in lab the entire time.  Having a dentist or doctors appointment is not a legitimate excuse (-1%).
