Comparing offers: BAML IBD - Coverage Group (one of the better ones) vs JP Morgan IBD - Mid Cap Group

FT: BAML group-specific offer to Industrials vs Rothschild M&A? Thinking BAML I'll see bigger deals but Rothschild I'll spend more time honing my technical skills

Hands down JPM.

It's M&A so you'll do more modeling and get the same technical skill set that you would in any other M&A group. Also JPM is a stronger name and has a great mobility program— I imagine you could move over to the "normal" M&A group after a year if you do well and find that you're having issues with getting PE interviews.
