Want to go to MMPE or LMM for work life balance. I work at top MM (Blair, Jef, HL). I want to go through my 2 years of analyst training before going to PE, and I just graduated in December before coming on for full time.
My stats: Diversity, Non Target, 3 internships and a 3.6 GPA. Didn’t take standardized tests.

Should be totally fine. If you feel the need to upgrade your educational brand post pe, can do b school if you want.
MFPE is probably out for a few different reasons but you will definitely find a spot in MM/LMM. Many (most?) of these firms go off cycle, so don't feel pressured to take your first offer in oncycle if it's not what you want.
Make sure you diligence WLB very carefully if that's your top priority, lots of random little LMMs grind out terrible hours.
What would you say is the best way to ask about wlb without sounding lazy?
