Study abroad or summer internship?

If you had to choose between an internship at a top investment corporation and a reputable summer finance program in China (the economy of the future), which would you go for?

China because you get to sharpen your language skills.
Unless you're born/raised to be bi/ti-lingual like me then I would probably pick the internship

G2O2,

I have the same question! I've actually been looking for an internship into Finance in China.

What "reputable summer finance program in China" do you have in mind?

Will they accept High School incoming Seniors?

Thanks!

It is the CIEE study abroad program at Donghua University in Shanghai. You can get more information from their website www.ciee.org. The summer program isn't as good as the one that is held over the school semester, but I don't want to miss a semester here. Unfortunately, I think you have to have enrolled in a university before you can apply, but you should confirm it with them, I'm not too sure about that.

Yeah, unfortunately, it says for university students. Do you think they would be negotiable?
