In terms of skill set and marketability, I would definitely go with BAML LevFin. BAML has a strong name in the lev fin space, and they are definitely rising due to the combined strengths of BA and ML. Lev Fin although not where it was 3 years ago, of course, is still thought of as one of the core feeder groups for post IB opps - similar to M&A. UBS is slumping to the weaker end of the BB spectrum and DCM, especially if you are referring to HG DCM while there will be a lot of deal closings, is predominantly pitch work and quick work. I would go with BAML and Lev Fin, try to land a FT offer, and then go from there.

Good luck.
