Risk Mgmt vs F500 Financial Analysis? (6 month internship)

I'm an undergraduate finance student at a non-target top 100 school and I think I'm probably picking between two positions for my summer internship. Both are paid fairly similarly, and after I consider sign on bonuses, parking costs and tolls, the pay difference is M&A or AM would be difficult, but my hope is that I can leverage the experience that I get from one of these to get a more prestigious internship for my final 6 month internship (will take place in about a year). Hopefully, I can find an internship for the final round that's in PWM, Equity Analysis, IB, AM, etc, and then get a FT offer from one of those.
