<p>You might be happier at Vassar should you choose not to be premed…depending on which field you choose, Hopkins may or may not be a stronger choice.</p>
<p>In the end, many of the above posters agree, ED is too tough a decision to make based on acceptance rate issues (whether or not your chances do increase like 20%, as julliet has pointed out…doesn’t mean your chances would increase 20% since the pool is more competitive), financial issues (you’ve gotta accept whatever finaid package they give you, where as RD, you can compare your selected choices), and career choice issue (your not sure about premed, don’t apply ED just yet )</p>
<p>Yeah, Good luck. Btw, What other things could you see yourself doing if not becoming a doctor?</p>
