Masters Degree - Interested in opinions

I am interested in your opinion monkeys about my choice of masters degree in finance. I am a european student, studying at a completely non target university accounting and finance. I cannot afford lse,imperial,warwick or other masters in usa, so I am thinking of applying to these schools.

Bocconi (MSc in Quant finance and risk management)
Stockholm School of Economics
Erasmus University

And if I find efficient funds, I will also apply at HEC Paris.

I am interested in working at m&a advisory, sales, trading, equity research or other FO roles in Europe, Asia, US. What do you think of the above schools? Do you have something else to suggest? Thanks in advance!

futurectdocSt. Galen? LBS? LSE?

I said at my posts that I cannot afford schools like LSE, LBS etc.. Although, St. Gallen would be a good choice, but its two years and living expenses are very high... Do you think St. Gallen is better than SSE?
