Experts, I have come across an article (
https://www.mbadataguru.com/blog/mba/mb ... ound-2018/) that analyzed MBA acceptance by round using data. According to the article, for many of the schools, the round does not matter. In fact, for few of the schools, the chances are better in later rounds.
However, I was told that the chances decrease as you apply for later rounds.
How true is the article?
Thanks for posting. This probably belongs in the MBA Forum. Here is another similar post:

But one theory is that percentags can be deceiving esp when few people apply in R3 and few are admitted in R3.
I believe mbadataguru used GMAT Club's
decision tracker as his data source. You can also look at it in the
decision tracker for you preferred school as well and use filters to filter out the specific results.... usually the number of admits decreases quite a bit in anything after R2.
You can also see my post about pros and cons of applying in various rounds (though it does not focus on the benefits of R1 vs. R2 vs. later - that's a long debate that has been going on for quite a while):
