Slides not fully complete

Hi, I have a question regarding to the presentation.

If due to time pressure, my slides are not fully complete. I.e. I didn't have time to put down bullet points under the graphs; or the summary slide did not capture all the key points. Can I still talk through what is not on the slides during the presentation and get a pass?


Thanks
 
The other question is, is the final scoring for CA3 the average mark of the written communication and the presentation?

I am reasonably confident with the written communication....

Yes! The examiners regard the combination of the slides, your narrative and your body language as your presentation. So, you can, to a reasonable degree, compensate for things not in your slides by including them in your narrative. Of course, some things are more effectively communicated using a visual aid, rather than using narrative (and vice versa), so there may be some impact on marks - but it doesn't mean an automatic fail.

Yes!
 
I'm going to state the obvious. Sounds like you have identified two areas of weakness : time keeping and verbal presentation. If this is right, practise both more to improve them and don't rely on compromises
