Study route Msc/MBA/Ph.D.?

I'm currently studying Business management first year (shitty uni).

When I look at my options, I won't be able to take part in either internship and part-time jobs during my time in uni

(working to pay my tuition and other expenses, working 6 days a week)

I'm just weighing in my options here and in reality, ill need to ace the GMAT and hop into a great Bschool, my goal down the road is to work in a hedge fund in the future. I've seen that people study machine learning, programming, or just go for the Ph.D route.

Any idea what I should study down the line? do I go for a PhD? any suggestions would be great

Sincere your ape
