Non-target of non-targets: CCA at community bank v. tax associate big 4

Hi guys,

Senior graduating from non-target in December. Have a few public accounting offers and one commercial credit analyst offer from a community bank (PE/IB.

I am thinking I'll want an MBA and I'm not worried about test scores or extra curricular activities, but I am seriously concerned about getting work experience that helps my application.

All thoughts and perspectives welcome.

Thanks.
