# Project Milestone 5: Final Progress Report

**Due: April 24 (submit PDF on Blackboard)**

Presentations are three days away. This milestone is a final check-in before you present: where things stand, what your results show, and how you plan to wrap up the writeup after presentations.

By now your analysis should be substantially complete. You may still be refining figures or running a final model, but you should have results to talk about. The goal here is to make sure you're ready to present — and to give you a structured moment to think through what you have before you're in front of the class.

## Status Report

Write a brief status report addressing each of the following.

### What are your results so far?

Describe your main findings as concretely as you can. Even if results are preliminary or not yet fully interpreted, say what you found. If you have figures or tables that you plan to use in the presentation, you're welcome to include them here.

### What's still in progress?

Is there any analysis you're still running, or anything you plan to add before or after the presentation? Be specific about what is and isn't done.

### What changed since M4?

Briefly note any significant changes in direction, methods, or findings since your M4 submission.

## Presentation Plan

Give a brief outline of how you plan to structure your presentation. Your presentation should cover your research question, data, methods, and findings — but you have flexibility in how you frame and sequence them. A bullet-point outline is fine.

## Writeup Plan

After presentations, you'll submit a final writeup. What do you still need to do to turn your current work into a polished writeup? A short list is sufficient.

## Formatting and Logistics

- Submit as a single PDF on Blackboard
- No strict length requirement; 1–2 pages is typical
- If working with a partner, both members submit the same document
