Sophomore Internship Advice

So, I got two sophomore internship offers from Advent International and Ardian (FoF). I am diversity from a nontarget I plan to recruit in the Spring for PE and IB, ideally trying to land BX corp pe, evr, cvp, m klein, etc. 


So, 1) I wanted to ask which firm for sophomore summer would be looked on more favorably by firms like BX, EVR, PJT, etc when recruiting, Advent or Ardian? I like the firms and positions pretty equally so its really just a matter of prestige, which is important to me since I'm again from a non target. Also, 2) if you guys were in my position, would you take either of them or try to go for something more prestigious like MS or GS sophomore?


Thanks everyone!
