Summer Internship vs Summer School?

Dear All,

I'm in a small dilema, which is I don't know what to choose to do this summer. After going through similar treads I've seen that most of the time everyone suggest for "work experience".

Now my question is would you still suggest me to work as an "Valuation Analyst" at a company in an emerging market?

or

Go to a summer school? (Example: an Ivy League Uni?)

I don't know if you need any background info about me to suggest me, however, if this is necessary I will provide it upon request.

Thanks in advance for your advice and help have a nice weekend.
