In my viewpoint, a BA would give you the generalities of psychology and tend towards working in the social services area of psychology. A BS would give you more on the science side of things (duh! ) towards working in the research area of psychology.

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.
