Middlebury vs BC Carroll

I am having a difficult time, to say the least, deciding between Middlebury or BC for my undergrad. There are obvious pros (and cons) for each. BC seems to be more pre-professional, but the liberal arts approach of Middlebury is an obvious asset. BC has a better location, but Middlebury would have less competition. Middlebury (from what I hear) is relatively difficult for econ (what I'd major in there, vs a concentration in finance at BC), but it is in the middle (pun unintended) of nowhere.

Culture (i.e. athletics) aren't a factor in my decision, neither is cost. As my username might suggest, my goal is a high-level placement in IB (or consulting, but the consensus seems to be that it is far easier to jump IB to consulting than vice versa). Any assistance would be very much appreciated, and I thank all in advance for your attention.
