Br />it honestly, but without being too negative or too personal. That's a very weird question to be asked during an interview. Man, this gimmicky question is obviously meant to trap you into saying something stupid and nothing else.
"I wish my parents hadn't beaten me daily, I wouldn't have ever tried coke in the second grade ...."I'll bet many, many people say too much and sink their chances. For these goofball questions, the best strategy is to say something innocuous."I wish I had taken sailing lessons", "I would have taken 7th grade french" etc.'No baggage here Mr/Mrs. Interviewer!' is the basic message. Interviewing IS A SALES CALL, and you are the product.
The answer to "Tell me the worst thing about your product" IS NOT it catches fire when exposed to sunlight, it's that we can't make them fast enough. To impress the interviewer/s, I strongly suggest that the interviewee take resposibility on whatever he/she didn't change earlier. For example, you may explain that you did not put in hardwork at your early years of educations and realised that academic qualifications are important in the latter years.
But you have since taken action such as taking up part-time night class/degree whilst working a full-time job so as to catch up with the lost years. By admitting that you indeed have certain regrets but you have arrested the regrets will make you a responsible person who is determined to change what you can instead of just a loser who crys over spilled milk. Strange interview questions like this are used to evaluate how you react to the unexpected in your job interview, your ability to think quickly on your feet and to give a coherent answer!
There is no wrong or right answer to these psychological interview questions but if you are well prepared for questions like this, you will come across as a confident and resourceful candidate. How you answer is more important than your actual answer. Stay calm, think for a while before you respond and make sure your answer reflects a positive attitude.

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.
