How to answer the jury questions?

Jury is always been a headache in architecture school but also a form of learning and becoming bold to represent your ideas freely in front of any one or any medium without being changing the design decisions.
1. always find technical conversation rather than to justify some thing with quotes, pictures, or political scenarios.
2. Mention the author first in any reference then the book.
3. always be serious in any jury the smile on your face will ruin your words and make the juror more open to you in questions.
4. Jury is an acting so act wisely like a pro.
5. take the same time interval for your presentation medium , the time you give to produce that design.
