MiM or MF for IB

Hey guys,

non-target here, thinking of following the master route. I am solely focused on IB and wanted to know if doing a Master in Management will reduce my chance of getting interviews compared to the MFA. Only applying to LBS, LSE and IMPERIAL.

Pros for MiM

I do not have a quant degree ( pharmacy), and therefore not eligible for some MF programme mainly imperial and don't want lower my chance of getting accepted for LBS MFA whereas I have more chance for the MiM

the MIM is generally cheaper too, and less competitive requiring lower GMAT.

Lastly, do you guys think it is worth applying to Imperial as I want to take a loan and not sure if imperial is worth it in terms of oportunity
