Best route to AM post-MBA

Hi,I am attending an M7 MBA program and I am looking to attempt to break into AM post-mba. With no previous finance experience, is this even possible? Would it make sense to try for a sell side ER role and transition to AM? Is it possible to transition from IB or ECM to AM? Thanks in advance.
