# Presentation

How your EE should be presented

Presentation counts! As you recall, presentation is [assessed](/extended-essay/assessment.md) under criterion D and is worth 4 marks. 

Your final essay should look **professional** and **academic**. Make sure you write in a clear, correct and formal academic style that is appropriate for your subject area. 

You will want to **review your own work** to ensure there are no errors and that you are following the advice given to you by the IB and your supervisor.

The IB has set out the following **formatting requirements**:

* Choose a **font, font size and spacing** conducive to on-screen marking.

{% hint style="success" %}
A good example might be arial, size 12 with double-line spacing.
{% endhint %}

* Include **page numbering**.

{% hint style="success" %}
This should be at the **bottom** of your pages and will help you create a professional contents page.
{% endhint %}

* Do **not** include your candidate, supervisor, or school name anywhere in the essay or the RPPF.

{% hint style="info" %}
Your EE is externally marked so **needs to be anonymous**.
{% endhint %}

* Make sure the **file size** for your essay is not more than 10 MB.

{% hint style="warning" %}
If your file size is too large it cannot be uploaded to the IB.
{% endhint %}
