Since it's a college degree, you'll have your basic classes such as math, science, english, history, etc. Then you'll start the courses related to nursing: biology, lab, etc. , where you study all the things related to the body, blood, skin, skeleton system, organs, etc.Etc If you like anything that has to do with anatomy and biology, then you will be ok. How you did in school will help determine how you do in college. If you like to care for the sick and have determination, you can do it.
Call a college that offers nursing and see what they can do for you. Good luck.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
