Round 1 is generally preferred if your profile is strong and complete—schools have more seats available and you signal high commitment. Round 2 is perfectly competitive but more crowded. The right choice depends on your GMAT score, recommender readiness, and how polished your narrative is. Applying with a well-crafted application in Round 2 consistently outperforms a rushed Round 1 submission.
