I am out for a few years and haven't done too much with BGP, but iirc it heavily depends on your BGP configuration. BGP is a highly complex routing protocol and you can tweak it to your exact needs. On default it is just like RIP and takes the shortest path, except that RIP counts each router and BGP only counts the outbound routers.
