Thanks in advance.
Yes, in that context I was referring to the essay as well as the executive summary (basically a "to the point" version of your submission). When you made your submission, obviously you tried to highlight the aspects of your team that you felt were most impressive so these will be things on which you will probably want to expand upon. Also, if you had other important things that, due to space issues, you were unable to put into your submission, when you talk to the judges, such things can be presented. On my old team, our Chairman's Submission was basically like a teaser for the judges. You give them just a snipit (sp?) of your best and make them ask you for the rest. Your talking to the judges is your chance to tell them your story and why you're fantastic, without a 10,000 character limit. My best advice on what to do in your presentation? Follow your gut. If you think it's really important, or that the judges really like a particular aspect, tell them everything you can about that!
