what do I need to do to get in to MF PE (do I have any chance)

Profile:
Final year student Target Uni in UK, British, only speak English, diversity, received multiple FT offers from firms in the bracket of GS/JPM/MS/EVR/PJT

will be in a group where I can go off and do many different strategies such traditional buyout PE, Infra, credit (obviously won't be a strong candidate equally across all strategies, but its possible)

what can I do from now and over the next few years to max out my chances of MF PE. Yes this maybe a bit hardo considering I haven't even started but I am obsessed and want to generate as much cashflow before we have UBI and AI takes over
