Hi All,
Could only find question answered once on the forum, and it was submitting an article with multiple authors as a writing sample. I have a bit of a different question.
May I submit the literature review of my thesis for my writing sample?
Since I am currently in my M.A., it is my most advanced/best writing, and also the best representation of my research interests and research fit. It's 25 pages. Is that too long? Is it awkward to turn in a lit review?
What sort of paper are they looking for? Should it be one that includes statistics? If so, I'd need to choose an older paper from undergrad that wouldn't be as good of a reflection of my interest/writing skills, or even statistical skills.
Thank you so much!
