Hi All,
I'm a new poster here - just had a question about my writing sample. I'm applying for PhD programs; currently I have my B.S. For my writing sample, I'm planning on submitting my honors thesis, but is it a problem if it's not narrowly related to what I want to study in grad school? It's still in the same discipline, but it is more geared toward another one of my interests in undergrad. Because I didn't really pinpoint my current interests until the end of undergrad, I unfortunately don't have any papers that I can submit that are focused on my area of interest. I'm hesitant to write an entirely new paper on my research interests just for my writing sample, though. Thoughts??? Thanks in advance for the advice!
