Deciding between a few options.

Hey guys just wanted to ask what you guys think.

Currently a sophomore at a semi target and am interested in doing banking my junior year, currently interning at a 1.5 billion dollar privet equity firm and am looking into options for the summer.

My options are.

Can stay at PE firm through summer and take classes also, the experience has been really really good so far.

Take an internship at a local but relarivwly well known investment bank in the equity research department.

Or three, I have a strong lead for an internship in manhattan for a boutique investment bank.

Normally, I would take the boutique offer in NYC without any further consideration but I am running into a n issue. I need to take classes to avoid graduating late because I am behind in my schedule to graduate.

Should I take the less prestigious internship options with either staying at PE firm or going into research near my school or should I just take the risk and do the manhattan banking internship? Really tough call for me as I am very interested in banking and fully understand the advantage of banking as a sophomore going into junior year but I also recognize the fact that I can really bolster my gpa by taking these during the summer

Having a tough time deciding so I figured I would ask
