    One of the students in this forum said ” marker failed me by saying you have got too many slides”
    And some passed students have said that i had some where like 20 slides.
    Because marker is going to say, ” You cannot present that much in 15 minutes limit”
    Also some students said that marker said “You have to present the ‘financial and business performance of company over 3 years'” your slides should focus only on that and not on how you gathered information or why you choose the topic.

    Rules
    1- Font should be a minimum 16 !
    2-Use bullet points and minimum number of words that will help you in speaking, not big big sentences
    3-Only very very relevant info, don’t forget comparator!
    4-15 minutes is maximum and marker is expert, he can analyze if data can actually be present in this time limit or will exceed
    5- 6 bullet points is a failure , one of the students said

    Bro i am giving my RAP first time. I read all the forum topics in OBU section because I really don’t want to risk it.
    I read some students saying what i said above,

    17 slides is great !
    What i meant was the student had not written much for part 3!
    6 bullet points were too much on a single slide!

    No. you don’t have to include all the graphs you have created in your RAP. Instead, group the graphs and create a new graph for your PowerPoint presentation.
    Lets say, you have individual graphs for GP margin, NP margin and for ROCE. Combine this 3 and create one single chart in Excel. It will make more sense and save slides. Likewise do the same for liquidity or efficiency ratios.

    Give importance to below areas when you do your presentation:
    – It should look professional (select a matching theme and color, font sizes, no long sentences, grammar etc..)
    – Make sure it has an introduction
    – Do not miss any main area which you have explained in your RAP (eg: SWOT analysis or a main category of ratios)
    – Make sure you include your findings of your research.
    – Be practical ALWAYS. How many slides can you explain with in 15 – 20 minutes? ( I personally would say maximum 13 slides if I am taking 20 minutes)

    Thanks

    @bassaniobroke

    Your maximum slides must be 20 and contain your research findings without theoretical data punching. It will include graphs for all ratios, description of company, business analysis, conclusion, recommendation and objective of presentation.

    Remember to include information gathering sources also.

    Thank You.

    @Hammad Ahmed Qureshi

    Sir should give in-text citation to the things you just mentioned above. as in, whatever we are saying in the ppt presentation are derived from the RR. say, smt we wrote in RR with an in-text/citation….if we write that thing again in the ppt slide of the presentation, do we have to reference it once again?

    No referencing is required for PPT. Secondly, detailed text are prohibited for presentation.

    Thank You.

    NO. You don’t have to reference your PowerPoint presentation. However if you include any NEW information or a chart/graph which you do not include in your RAP you have to mention the source. No need for in-text reference or reference list.

    Cheers
