Presentation rehearsal plan guide

Choose a 10-minute presentation allocation from three rehearsals

Compare where the introduction, demo, and close took time across three runs. Keep actuals, the target, and a 30-second rehearsal as separate artifacts.

Measure three stages across three runs

The synthetic trials total 11 minutes, 10 minutes 30 seconds, and 9 minutes 30 seconds. The median trial total is 630 seconds.

The stage-median sum also happens to be 630 seconds here; a trial-total median is not always the sum of stage medians.

Choose what to shorten yourself

This example shortens the introduction by 30 seconds and keeps a 330-second demo and 180-second close. It does not infer importance automatically; record the choice for the next rehearsal.

actual median: 630 seconds
choice: intro 90 / demo 330 / close 180
target: 600 seconds

Build the 600-second cue card

The cumulative cues are 00:00, 01:30, 07:00, and 10:00. The original actuals remain unchanged. Loading the plan does not auto-start a timer.

Keep the 30-second experience separate

The short rehearsal uses 5 seconds for intro, 16 for demo, and 9 for close. It is not the 600-second plan or a live presentation record.
