I've been steadily chugging down "the track" for some time now. Target school > MM banking (one year) > lateral to BB banking > PE, the whole nine.

1. Join another PE fund as a senior associate, with a hope to get on a partner track,
2. Go to bschool,
3. Join a corporation in a biz dev role,
4. Join a corporation in an FP&A role,
5. Join another kind of investment fund (hedge fund, debt fund, etc.).
