As long as you do the work to get a good grade/score I see no harm at all. The writing skills you will learn/keep/enhance will never go away making everything down the line easier, including papers in college. English/writing is used in almost everything.
If you don’t do the work for this class due to not feeling the love, it makes me wonder how you will handle being a successful pre-med candidate in college. Not everything you study in college will be your enjoyable first choice. Chances are it will be similar in med school.
If you were asking about whether you should keep a photography class (or other similar elective) because you weren’t feeling the love, I’d respond differently.
