Possible to break into EB/BB with MM experience?

Hello, I graduated college Spring 2024 and have 3 IB experiences under my belt, all within lower-middle market. I'm curious if it is possible to break into bigger IB firms like EB/BB one day and would appreciate any tips/advice on how to do that. Curious if anyone was in the same boat as me with prior experience in LMM and broke into EB/BB, would love to hear your story on how you did it!
