Choice of Master's degree and chance of admission

Hi everyone! I'm currently trying to slect which Master's degree to apply to. My goal is to get into MBB or IB afterwards. My profile: 740 GMAT Bachelor's in Business Adminsitration from HSG Around 3.3 GPA (not 100% sure about the conversion but it seems correct) 6 months internship in Strategy Consulting from a small consulting firm abroad of my home country Probably another 6 months internship before starting my Master's, but not relevant as it will be after the admissions President of my uni club, a bit of volunteering on the side

The programs I am currently considering are: - HSG SIM / MacFin - Bocconi's Master in International Management or Master in Finance - HEC Master in Management - ESCP Master in Management - SSE Master in Management / Master in Finance - Rotterdam Master in Management

HEC, ESCP would be impossible without scholarship Bocconi without scholarship would already be a big stretch.

Thank you everyone!

My order would be HSG SIM then HEC MIM then RSM CEMS then Bocconi CEMS then SSE CEMS then ESCP MiM in that order. All pretty good degrees :)

 

Any idea if I would have a shot at them with my profile ? Also, CEMS in Bocconi rather than a double degree? Thank you!
