Too late for MBB

Recruited for IB SA last semester and was able to land a spot at a top EB. However, have now realized that I'm not cut out for IB and would much rather go into consulting. Are any of MBB still recruiting for SA 24, know there are many consulting firms I just don't think I'd leave the IB offer for anything besides MBB as of now

Is it just the application that is still technically open or are there actually spots left to be filled

 

Checked the deadlines before asking the question. There's a reason I asked whether they were still recruiting and not when their applications closed. I am unfamiliar with the consulting industry and didn't know whether open applications meant spots were still open. This is not the case in the industries I have experience recruiting in and so just wanted information from people who know the industry better than I do
