Re-recruit for SA 2022?

Hypothetically, if I signed at a MM bank for SA2021, could I re-recruit for SA 2022 if I don't like the bank I am at?

Background: IB SA 2021 at MM, ER internship at a well-known bank, a previous internship in AM, non-target, high GPA, good rest of resume.

The way I could justify this is by saying that I have decided to extend my graduation by a semester, and thus being eligible to recruit for SA 2022 again.

Would hypothetically like to leverage this to get a top EB/BB, if I don't get that, then I'll just accept an FT from the MM if I get one.

Probably best to recruit for FT spots (thinking there will be a lot open because of decreased hiring last year) if that doesn't work out, then try to lateral after a year. This way, you would be lateraling with about a year's worth of experience and you wouldn't have to delay graduation.

As someone who's in a similar situation, I think it's easy to say that now, but when all of our peers have graduated and are already working, I think that extra year will be boring as all hell. Might just be me though
