RBC Full-Time IBD or MS SA London
If they were both full-time, MS is the obvious choice. Which do I choose as RBC is a full-time offer??

MS conversion rates are pretty high, I would take that and even if it falls through you can easily recruit FT for RBC-tier firms afterwards.
Do you mind providing an insight into the timeline for MS in London?
Week 0 - Submitted application Week 4 - Phone interview 1 Week 5 - Phone interview 2 Week 5 - AC
Will you be able to convert into FT immediately following your SA at MS? If yes, and you're confident in your abilities, go with that one.
If not, go with RBC.
I would most likely have to wait 6-12 months to start MS but it does have a 2-year grad scheme, compared to RBC's 3-year grad scheme.
