Do MBA adcoms know/care about investment bank prestige?

Do the M7 MBA adcoms know and care about investment banking prestige. They obviously know about the BBs but do they think of banks like Lazard/Moelis as much more prestigious than banks like Stifel/Brown Gibbons Lang?

I guess a better question does it make a significant difference? Or is it mostly that people at strong IB firms go to the top MBA schools because they are normally better candidiates in general?
