Wich PhD Program

Hello everyone, I'm a French student in a French university. I am considering applying for a PhD program in Economics after my bachelor. I'm expecting to graduate with a 14-16/20 (in 2023), wich is solid in the French universities. I will prepare for the Toefl and GRE next year. I am considering the following options. 1st) The Cambridge advanced diploma in econ, then the MPhil Research in economics then the PhD. Is it a relevant strategy? 2nd) Oxford Mphil+PhD program, a 5-6 years program. 3)Lse Ms+Pdh Program 5-6 years program 4)Toulouse capitole Master in economics 5)Sciences po Master in economics 6)Ecole Normale Supérieure program (Best research program in France) 7) A new program, the Polytechnique (best engineering school in France) PhD program, in partnership with others great schools (HEC, ENSAE, PSL). 8)Some US programs, I don't know them What are your thoughts? I would like to make research, as a teacher or in the industry (why not work in industry for 10 years then teaching). Thank you for your time and your attention. Best regards
