UC Berkeley MET vs Columbia undergrad (FinEcon + CS)

Hi all!

So glad to have these schools! At MET I have a direct admit as a freshman into Haas School of Business (focusing on finance) and plan to do IEOR in Berkeley Engineering. At Columbia I plan to do FinEcon and CS. Which will help more in IB out of undergrad (planning to do tech IB or m&a)? Also which will help with these internships: tech IB, PE, and quant trading?

Thanks!

P.S. From TriState Area
