LSE vs Cornell AEM

I am currently a first-year undergraduate at LSE, and I'm looking to transfer to Cornell Dyson for AEM next year. Is this a good choice to make? Is LSE or Cornell more prestigious for Investment Banking? Are IB placements better in Cornell than in LSE?

Both great schools.  I think this comes down more to whether you want to work in the UK or the US.  Would probably stick to LSE if the former but would otherwise pursue Cornell Dyson, assuming you get in.  Not really an apples-to-apples comparison given the geographic differences here but Cornell Dyson places very well.
