<p>Which is harder or more well known, Cornell or Hopkins bme? Right now Hopkins's aid package seems a lot better than Cornell's, but I will probably call up Cornell to check whether there was any error.</p>
<p>In terms of BME, the BME program at Hopkins is consistantly ranked #1 in both the undergraduate and graduate areas. As far as I know, Cornell doesn't actually have a BME major - they have a BME "option" and a minor, but no ABET accredited major. There's really no way to compare the "hardness" of the programs since no one has experienced both of them, but I have no doubt that the programs at Cornell are just as challenging as those here at Hopkins.</p>
<p>Best advice: visit both campuses and then discuss your options with your parents in terms of finances, campuses and programs before you make a decision</p>
