Received Offer from J.P Morgan for FP&A

These are going to be two questions so please bare with me.

  1. I got an offer from J.P Morgan for FP&A yet I aspire to reach IB at some point. Would it be a good idea to go into FP&A and use that to springboard into IB later down the road, or just keep it as an option and still look for IB opportunities currently?

  2. If anyone of you have an FP&A background, is it wise to change into one of my majors into Accounting as I hear this background is more ideal for corporate finance. (I'm double majoring in Finance/MIS) (Non target)
