• Don't waste time
  - Work the whole class
• Have a set idea by 12th grade
• When you schedule your presentation day...
  - Don't put it off to the last day
  - Pick one of the first days because you won't stress as much
• Ask to video tape another project so you know what your situation will be like before you present.
• Pick something people will remember
• Think to yourself...
  - "How will I remember a project the best?"
• Pictures last forever!
• There will be many nagging teachers
• Use other teachers
  - Have other teachers that don't know about your project read your paper
  - If they get the point, then you have succeeded.

These are some of the points that the seniors brought out that I thought were interesting and very useful for completing my grad project.
