You can chose from the list. However, part of the purpose of the proposal
is showing that you know what you getting into, so you should use them as
guide and extend with further details and proposals of how to tackle the
mentioned problems before submitting. The proposal, once approved, will be
the approval criteria of the program, so be specially clear of the scope of
what you plan to achieve, and its timeline.

You should ask about this to the candidate mentors for the projects you
considering.

You can contact candidate mentors for early feedback on the proposal, for
questions, and for submitting the aptitude test. However, it is not
required.
