Shall you go the Extra Mile ?

My situation is quite straight forward. I could start FT as S&T Analyst this year in London... or I could kill myself to get into a MF in Princeton or at MIT to break into WallStreet...
The first one is the easy option - but I feel like I will be stuck for the rest of my life in this position. The second option will seriously challenge me on another level (I am quite weak at GMAT). I got a 4.0 GPA from a Tier 1 university in France...
Its a bit like in the Matrix take the red pill or the other one...

What would you do_
