Received offer for January 2025 start date

Hi guys, I received a FT MBB offer today and I was told that the start date would be january 2025. They said everyone in my year would be starting at the time which doesn't make any sense. Im confused on whether to take it or wait for another firm's offer. Had anyone else been given a January 2025 start date or heard anything about this?

I’m co 2023 MBB, no firm pushed back to mid 2024, only early 2024. Bain had April 2024 start date latest but that was by choice

 

My firm pushed back until later than mid-2024. MBB regional office.
