赶不上R2，R3申请是不是很占劣势？

gmat还没开始看，但是打算一月底考，full time准备

想申请harvard或wharton，要是申不上就不读了。就是似乎现在时间紧了，不知道R3的话是不是就真的机会小很多啊？

女，国内EE本科、硕士，top 5 university，3rd/200
＋荷兰硕士，1st/32

Investment banking 2rd analyst (in amsterdam)
+ a lot of extracurricular activities incl. experience in Non profit organization

前两天开始慎重考虑mba。。。

既然决定了，别想这么多。赶紧考试，给自己一个机会好了。一切皆有可能。

R3 = 没有机会
Three reasons:
1. Number of admits in R3 are significantly smaller than R1 or R2 (I heard that a few years ago Wharton accepted less than 10 out of more than 600 applicants ... if the data is true that means that the acceptance rate for R3 is significantly lower than other rounds.)
2. In R3 you are not only competing with R3 applicants but also with Waitlist-ers R1 and R2
3. If you are not admitted you will have a hard time to show improvements/growth when reapplying in R1 of the following year since less than 6 months would have passed
