In the same boat. I would say its not worth it to delay a graduation because you are justifying an additional year of school for a SA? My 2c is to do the MM SA and rerecruit if you absolutely dislike the team and confirm you would not enjoy the vertical.

Interesting. Part of me was thinking having that shot to directly work for a group you’re really interested in could potentially set me up better in the future than the MM firm in case FT recruit didn’t work out? Am I wrong / misinformed?
