JPM AWM to JPM IB help

Recruited last year for JPM private bank SA and was selected. Didn’t want to do IB because I was drawn to the better work life balance and 6 figure earning potential of PB. However I’m extremely competitive and also want to live in New York.

After lots of consideration of exits, wlb, etc I have decided to get a 5th year MSF and re-recruit.

Here are my stats: lower end Target school, 3.7 GPA, Clubs, leadership positions, and qualify for diversity.

Anyone have any advice? I have been applying to IB diversity programs at other firms and networking there but would prefer to stay within JPM (obviously) if at all possible. What are my options?
