On-cycle vs. MM PE

[MM IB Coverage A1] Seeing as on-cycle recruiting has largely wrapped up at the MFs and major UMM players, especially in NYC, where does this leave UMM/MM PE processes?

Especially interested because on-cycle was so delayed this year - and typically off-cycle processes kick off directly following wrap of on-cycle. I haven’t engaged fully with HHs and have seen some processes begin to launch - any info would be very helpful.
