Does debate affect graduation?

If the second debate can pass smoothly, it won't matter. You can get a diploma and a degree certificate directly. If you fail, you are likely to delay graduation. It will take almost half a year to delay, which means you can't get your diploma right away.

When debating the second debate, be sure to read your paper clearly, even every chapter. Don't stutter, let others think that you have a good grasp and are easier to talk to.
