How much is the final product worth in gcse DT AQA

I have got one week left of my NEA, I am trying to finish as much as possible but I am wondering which is worth finishing more, the write up (slides) or the practical?

I do Edexcel, and I personally focus purely on the practical when I get workshop time since I need the tools and stuff there, and then really lock in for the write up at home so that I end up doing both simultaneously. Both are important imo, since you put details of your practical into your writeup and you also have other sections like your LCA afterwards which can get you extra marks (at least for edexcel we do). It depends on your project though. I'm also on a time crunch for the last week and I'm personally focusing on at least getting an MVP (minimum viable product) done before adding all the details as it's more important for all/most of the components to be there to demonstrate your manufacture skills to make the different components with different materials/tools/processes than having only a few in good detail (make sure you focus on accuracy asw tho)

Hope this helps, idk how different edexcel is to AQA when it comes to the NEA but if u have any more questions lmk!
