Summer school/internship what to do

I will graduate in November (MSc in Finance in a public University) and probably this summer I will just have my thesis to do. No internship at the moment and quite no opportunity, due to my university, to directly enter the business.

Maybe it’s a quite silly question but would you recommend a summer school at LSE?

Would it be better to start a career in consulting and gain concrete knowledge to start climbing up to IB? (I already have offers from some big4)

Note: I already have experience in consulting and some also in equity research.
