Bocconi vs SSE - CEMS International Management/Business

Hello everyone,


I have been troubled by this matter for a long time: I applied both to SSE (CEMS MSc International Business) and Bocconi (CEMS International Management). Both schools have great reputation, but in case of admission, I can only choose one.
SSE scored really high in this year's FT MiM ranking (7th position), while Bocconi took the 9th place. Despite the great rankings, I feel that SSE does not get as much international recognition as Bocconi, and the latter has a better name in general.
From an international perspective, which one of these schools is more worth it? Any recommendations and suggestions are most appreciated.

Have a great day!
