Bocconi or RSM for IB ? (Undergraduate)

They are both okay, however most BB banks will almost exclusively only recruit from the top 5 in the UK.

Not true plus not relevant for the discussion. If you want to get into IBanking, as you said, Bocconi is better than RSM.
There will be no problem if you don't speak italian btw. You will not be the only international student there and there are several international student from BIEM that got SA and Graduate Position in London.

You'll be fine.

LSE, Oxbridge, Warwick, imperial college, I guess ?

Imperial doesn't place better than Bocconi or HEC or SSE in FO positions.

Yes, the average international student is from europe, east europe and asia. Honestly, I don't have any idea about the class composition at the Bachelor level so I cannot help you.
If you want to improve your english, RSM will give you a better experience cause Dutchs are better than Italians at english. Anyway your english would still be good enough to get the job that you want wherever you want.
Some professors are english native speakers, some others are not but obv they can speak english well.

I don't think you should choose your school according to the english level, btw. If you want to work in Investment Banking (corporate finance), Bocconi is better. If you are more interested in Management topics, RSM should be your choice.

Yes, at the undergrad level you are right.
BIEMF is told to be easier than CLEF or CLES. Anyway I don't know if it is a joke.

Bocconi reputation comes from its history. its faculty, its alumnis. The 3 years program are 8 or 10 years old so the reputation does not come from it.
Is it a problem if you learn the same things but you get higher marks than CLEF or CLES students? It will be just better for your application and you chances to get into top exchange programs...

I don't mean to be rude but I think that before asking all these questions and ask for confirmation for things you already read on here (I read so many clichés you can find here on TSR), you first need to get accepted by both, don't take that for granted.

Unis can be less favourable of someone that already did a Uni year abroad, and remember that since you are probably not going into full rate, you better be good.

Having said that, APPARENTLY (not even sure) BIEMF has higher grades, that's it. You learn the same things, get higher grades. Even if it were true, I'd be happy to be completely honest with you.
