An important Caveat: If your slides include extensive content then you are likely to go over your time. It is recommended to stay with bullet points and give an overview of them. Sometimes it might not be required to detail everything line by line, but to give an overview and speak around the data.  This requires practice but the approach will help you in delivering future presentations.

Important note: The Presentation should be submitted on LMS along with the assignment.
