Best MBA Consultants for M7?

Hey everyone,

I know the path to an M7/T10 is mostly straightforward for someone heading into IB; but for those who want as much of an edge as possible, who are the best consultants to go to for application prep? Anyone recommend a specific company/program?

Was just reading about some small consultancy called "Ivy Advisors" for URM's heading to B-School and it sparked the question. This would be way down the line for me, but I am still curious.

My BG: T20 undergrad, 3.0 GPA, 720 GMAT (first attempt after 2 months of non-targeted studying), summered at an American BB and will be heading back full-time. Want to apply after 2-3 years as an analyst to rebrand from my UG and pivot into the industry I'll be covering.
