How good is BMath/Financial Analysis and Risk Management at UWaterloo

I feel so sorry to bring topics like this to WSO, and usually would make do with already available threads but I couldn't find anything in detail on this topic. I am an International Student accepted into BMath/FARM at Waterloo. I just simply want to know if this program is worth it for getting into HFs or other Quant roles such as S&T and if not these roles then what sort of roles would be more realistic to aim for? I should have been done with 6 Co-op terms during my undergrad(which equates to 2 years worth of internships) and am dead set on taking the CFA® 
route since my end goal would be to get into IB after Masters. Any sort of advice is appreciated.
