Thoughts?

Hoping to get some thoughts on the below options:

• Current: Consultant at Economic Consulting firm (~$115K all in) with likely promotion in Spring 2021. Don't love the specific type of consulting I'm doing (pretty niche and not what I want to be doing long term)
• Alternative #1: Valuation analyst (so not client facing) at top PE firm. Role would be based in NYC (~$110K all in)
• Alternative #2: Consultant for boutique strategy consulting firm in TMT space (final round this week; $132K all in)

Also have plans for business school in the next couple years so please help weigh these options in terms of overall attractiveness for MBA admissions and career trajectory.

Also, a couple questions regarding the PE valuations role. Any idea as to whether interaction with deal teams and portcos (more from a financial info collection and analysis standpoint) can be leveraged into more client-facing roles in smaller PE shops? Or just generally whether it's still worthwhile to have a top PE firm brand name on resume even if it's not client-facing?

Thanks in advance!
