Any advice on what is is best to bring?
None of my recent work is really in the same topic as the PhD I'm applying for but I'm currently trying to choose between two options:
- The first is a 4000 word research article-style report of my dissertation research project
- The other is a 2000 word grant proposal assignment which received a slightly higher mark (but is similar structure to the research proposal that I already submitted to get me the interview)
Any thoughts?

The purpose of this request, I would think, is really just to check that your writing or have the ability to write at level 8 (PhD level). In which case I would personally take the longer 4,000 word document. I remember being asked something very similar when I started my PhD. I would not worry so much about the mark the work received, but make sure you correct any typos etc!
