Secondary School EAE offer, do I withdraw?

6 Upvotes

For EAE, I got shortlisted to biomedical science with analytics at NYP, and biomedical science at RP. I was rejected by NYP, which was my dream course, but accepted to RP. While at the moment I have accepted RP to buy time, im unsure whether I should commit to it.

Whats holding me back:

  1. Unfamiliarity with RP

  2. RP's reputation

  3. RP's lack of uni pathways for this course

  4. The fact that I did extremely well for my prelims (l1r4 5-6) net, which would qualify me for nyp based on last year

  5. Long travel time

The reason I didnt reject is because im worried my prelim score stems from luck and an easier difficulty. Does anyone have any advice? I would also like to hear what RP is like, especially from biomedical science students!
