Hi,
In my opinion, EA and R1 don't make much of a difference for Fuqua. You could do either and stand a good chance of getting through. For the Class of 2018, there were almost equal admits for India in both rounds.
Of course, EA signals solid intent of attending Fuqua and gives a slight advantage, but R1 doesn't have a disadvantage in terms of chances. So, either should be fine.

Thanks for your reply Anupam.
I was just wondering would it send a wrong signal to adcom if I am applying in R1, not EA, even when I am a reapplicant and fully prepared to apply in EA
So I was a reapplicant this year. I did apply EA. I'm not sure it would've mattered had I applied R1.
The rule is, if you're prepared you should apply EA. And if you get through, you're done. You can relax and spend a lot of time preparing. There's certainly advantage there, and also from the perspective of your candidature appearing more promising. I don't think AdCom will view it negatively, if you do apply in R1.
