BB Group Decision: Industrials vs. Consumer

Title, am only able to continue forward with 1 group at BB, top candidate in both processes. For reference:

Industrials group:

13-14 per analyst class, ~70% Ivy League, realistically 4-5 seats for semi targets (myself)

~ 10 chats w/ everyone but MD

Chosen as select few to speak with VPs prior to apps, had great chats

Would go straight to SD

Historically more competitive

Consumer group:

4-5 per analyst class, no school preference

~4 chats

Interviewed before apps, did great on first round

Would go straight to SD

Historically decently competitive

What option is better? Industrials group is much better than Consumer & equally more competitive. Not sure if I want to stay in banking long term, definitely want to keep option open. How should I assess?
