Is it just the given time that will be different?

Which is better to go for if U have to make a choice?

Silly question but what is the difference between a oral presentation and a symposium presentation? How do you define this?

To me, an oral presentation sounds like an individual effort (powerpoint slides, questions and answers at the end kind of thing), whereas in a symposium presentation, you'd perhaps be one of a panel of people discussing the same subject, or perhaps one of several presenters talking about the same subject.

Compare the definitions of "colloquium" and "symposium".
