waiting till R3:
Pros:
pending new job in January (different/unique industry, similar function, international experience)
I just took a lead role for a volunteer organization, and would have progress towards event planning.
Attempting the GMAT for a 4th time. (630 (Q39/V38) on first attempt is my best, but I just know that the quant side can come up).
Cons:
less admits, i.e. more competitive.
Applying R2:
Pros:
More admits, same round I got an interview in last year
possible waitlist.
Cons:
recommendation letters might not come in time for R2
feeling like work hasn't shown sufficient career progress since being rejected in March 2011.
not much EC in last 6 mo.
still applying with weak GMAT.
Notables: despite my profile, I interviewed R2 last year. My dad is a Chicago GSB alum (might have helped to get the interview). My B.S. is in Electrical Engineering from Lehigh, and my M.S. (3.71) is in Systems Engineering from George Washington University.
Your advice is appreciated!

sounds like R3 is clear choice, with a caveat. B-schools won't take application that is incomplete, so if you can't get recos in time, it's a done deal. You mention a very important point, however: progress. If you are getting a promotion, that could be the ticket. I would say if you could get your recos in time, you might consider a R2 application with the caveat that you would send info of your promotion in to be added to your file once the promo comes through.

Thank you for the quick reply!
The new job would be with a different company in a different industry, though would leverage my current skills. The new job could also have travel to China to work with the company's suppliers.
It's possible to get two reccos in for R2, though they would reflect my current role.
for R3, I'd maybe ask for my new EC, and one from my old position.
