I don't have a problem talking to people 1 on 1, its the "speaking in front of 30+ people" that makes me completely blank out and stutter during the presentation

>can do presentations in front of large groups easily, with little to no prep
>can't socialize to save my life
I JUST NEED A SUBJECT TO TALK ABOUT

That's the easiest part of the course though.

Your presentation is likely to be a topic different from anyone else's, which means you know the most about it in the class (except maybe your professor). This gives you a leg up in speaking authority and confidence comes naturally from that

It depends on what degree you're doing.

I did criminology, didn't have anything besides essays and exams.

Because depending on what field you go into you will be literally doing group presentations possibly every fucking day

Face it, autists like you just belong in a ditch

then what the fuck is the point of any education?
if I wanted to talk to someone and explain something educational to them, I would, privately.
Why the fuck is it required to explain something to the whole fucking class by making an official presentation.

You think you're the first person ever to suck at public speaking? You gotta keep sucking at it until you don't care you suck anymore. Then you got confidence. Then your speeches stop sucking

The point is to prepare you for life. You will have to use interpersonal communication in any career path other than neet. You will very often have to present things before the team you work with or your management or a company you're selling to.
You don't repeatedly write essays because you need to know why alliteration was important in Hamlet, you write them because you need to practice analyzing things beyond surface level and because reading and writing are essential skills.
