Top European Mid-Cap PE Funds

Helllo together, my name is Pete and I am seeking your advice. I am currently working as an Analyst2 at a BB in London and I am applying to PE firms at the moment. What do you think are the best Mid-Cap Funds in Europe and which criteria would you use to rank them? I realise that there is a huge number of Mid-Cap Funds out there and it's quite hard to get a good overview on the space. Do you also know which firms require their Associates to leave for an MBA after 2-3 years to move further up?

Many thanks for your comments!

Pete
