If you are planning to apply for US based programs, then the most prudent thing to do would be to apply for ISB in R2 only.

If you apply to ISB in R1, you'll likely get the decision and the deadline to accept the offer well before your R1 applications decisions from the American schools come out, which will put you in a spot (unless of course ISB is your first choice)

Its my experience, I am wiser by hindsight now.
