There is no comparison, UT is a top 20 school by any rankings, while A&M is not even close. In I-banking the caliber of school you go to is extremely important - you will be at a huge disadvantage going to UT over the "top tier" schools like Harvard, Stanford, Wharton, etc., but at least you'll have a chance (if you have other strong characteristics that compensate). If you go to A&M, your chances are substantially lower. Finally, Austin is beautiful and interesting while College Station is a small redneck-filled town in the middle of nowhere.
