It is fairly simple thinking so let me know if I am missing something but if people are stuck on unemployment or getting laid off or their salaries are cut by 20%, they choose to change their lives for the better and go through the application process. The fewer prospects, the more people head for the MBA while the economy is bad and options are few.
Also if there are people who are deferred (international students), the number of spots may be reduced, driving up the competition.
Now, these are forward looking statements and I am not sure if this is exactly how it plays out but proactive folks probably have started planning already.
