Which School Should I Commit To?

I've so far been accepted to the University of Virginia CAS and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill CAS. I intend to major in Economics and Math and I wanted to know which school would be best for me if I want to break into MBB. I'm hoping I could get some thoughts and opinions on the best play here.

If you’re entering as a freshman, practically everyone gets into KF sophomore spring as long as you have a good application. Get very involved on campus and don’t have a low GPA at the end of your first year. I would guess around 45% acceptance but those are generally the serious candidates (seems like you would fall into this category if you’re already posting here).
