On a public speech...?

Question

We are required to write a 3 minute autobiography and i was wondering if its accepted to refer to yourself and give the speech in a 3rd person, rather then 1st.

Answer 1

Yes, it is acceptable, but I advise that you don't. It will possibly lose you points because it's meant to be an autobiography, meaning that you write it yourself about yourself. So don't do it - go for an A+ and write it in 1st person.

Good luck with your speech! =]
