Grades are very, very important, both to get into a pre-med program and to get into a medical school -- but colleges look at more than just your GPA. A student with a 4.0 who took only the minimum classes necessary to graduate generally isn't going to look as good to a college as a student who has lower grades -- say a 3.5 -- but took harder, more advanced classes. Also important are extra-curricular activities, summer jobs, volunteer opportunities and personal references.
Any school guidance counselor should be able to help a student sort through his or her choices, advise the student on classes to take while still in school, and find the university that fits that student.
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.
