Question about ESADE Application Stages

Hi,
This questions is for forumers who may be familiar with the ESADE admissions process.
I am applying to ESADE Business School for Fall 2011 intake. I've completed my application and essays, and am at the stage where I would just need to click the 'Submit' button.
I am hesitant to submit right now because, from what I gather, ESADE does staged application rounds. Applications completed by December 10th will get decisions by January 14th, and applications completed by Feburary 11th will get decisions by March 4th. In theory, I should wait to submit closer to the Feburary 10th Stage 3 deadline.
However, I know that some international schools actually review applications as soon as they are submitted. Unlike many U.S. schools that don't file applications until after a particular round's deadline, some international schools may start reviewing completely submitted applications even before a round's deadline.
There is less than a month's time between Feburary 11th (ESADE Stage 3 deadline) and March 4th (ESADE's decision date for Stage 3). I am skeptical ESADE can get through all the Stage 3 applications (and schedule interviews) by March 4th if they only start filing and reviewing after Feburary 10th.
Suppose I submit my completed Stage 3 application immediately after the Jan 14th Stage 2 Decision Date, will ESADE start filing and reviewing it, weeks ahead of Feburary 11th Stage 3 deadline?
