MM IB SA or BB S& T SA?

Any advice? I have offers for a MM IB internship and a BB ( think Barclays, UBS, Citi) S&T internship as a sophomore for this coming summer in NYC. I want to work in IB after college. Would the S&T BB experience be useful for a Junior year IB offer at a BB? I would assume my IB experience would count more but would I be missing out on networking opportunities at the BB?

Higher tier or lower tier MM (out of simple curiosity)? If you want to work in IB I would definitely take the MM IB.

A sophomore IB internship is very very rare and will give you a huge leg up for BB SA recruiting next summer. I wouldn't pass it up. Puts you in the 1% of applicants for SA. And you really don't need to be concerned that you're at a MM instead of BB. The BB won't care..

 

High tier MM. I am leaning towards the IB internship as it is a well structured program for the interns and I have heard sophomores also get actual work.
