ESCP MIM vs BOCCONI MIM (ITA) vs BOCCONI AFC (ITA)

I was thinking of applying for a business master,my goal is to work (in order of preference) in :IB capital markets,corporate banking,levfin,and possibly m&a either big 4 or banks.Bocconi is the cheapest option for me but im not 100% sure if i can get in afc,i will have no work experience when i will be a bachelor graduate in my public school bachelor.Goal would be working in London.Is it correct to consider ''stepping stone'' jobs like big 4 M&a to go into IB mm/BB,or rating agencies to go corporate banking or DCM,or even credit risk at BB and then IB,i know its better to get immediately a FO role offer but i want to consider other options.
