Unsolicited tip for orals: I always found it useful to first state the things I want to say after reading the thesis statement. Por ejemplo: [After reading the thesis statement] Sir/Maam, for my discussion I will cover four things: (1) the recurring themes related to the problem of God in modern society (2) the context where Sartre is coming from (3) his insights on such recurring themes and (4) the limitations of his ideas as highlighted by Marcel Doing so will give direction to your discussion and will also tell the teacher that you have prepared. Also, it helps break the nervousness because you are in a way warming up, you have started talking, and the snowflake will snowball into insights. Oral exams are about momentum. Build that. :)
