Advice IB/Consulting

Hello all, 

Thinking of applying to MBB/IB graduate programs in London as a final year law student. I have previous internships in M&A/Corporate in Law firms and Coca Cola, but no previous internships in IB/MBB. I'm also on track for a first-class honors, do I have a competitive chance of landing a spot in these graduate programs, or am I better off applying to their summer internships that are after my graduation?

I am also contemplating a MiM from LBS/Cambridge if I am unable to secure an offer for work after graduation. 

Any advice is welcome and can provide more information if this is not enough to go off.

What university are you a final year law student at? Matters a lot for MBB un London, for IB with your work experience you should get a few interviews as long as everything else is good, make sure you learn your technicals
