How to move from MBB Knowledge to front-end consulting

Hi guys! I'm currently working with BCG's Knowledge and Analytics team in the Private Equity practice area. I wanted to know more about the possible routes to move to front end consulting or investment banking. If I work and then go for my MBA to a top B school outside my home country (I'm currently in India), is it possible to be placed in front end MBB or IB? I'm also a CFA level 1 candidate. My target schools are Oxford, cambridge, LBS and NUS.
