Torn between two universities

Hey WSO Community! So, I have the choice to either attend Bocconi for the BIEM or St Gallen for Business next year. But, I just can’t decide which one I should pick. Some background: I‘m from Germany and I would like a career in either finance (preferably IB) or consulting (preferably MBB), haven’t made my mind up yet. Later I‘d preferably live in Britain, Switzerland or maybe Australia. Brexit also has me quite worried if I would be able to live there and if the banks will even stay there. Do you have advice which of the universities I should attend or what would you do in my situation?
