I think ED2 and RD have lower acceptance rates than ED1. ED2 might have slightly higher acceptance rates than RD so that could be boost.

Here is what I know for sure. Stern tries to fill up 30 - 35% of the seats through ED1 and then another 25 - 30% for ED2 so for the RD round more than half the seats are already taken up.

You are definitely competitive enough to get in in the RD round and have a good shot, it’s just that there are so many people with stats your level that apply that Stern could fill its entire class with people like you 10x over.

If you don’t want to make the ED commitment then do RD for sure so that way at least you can compare options to make sure its financially feasible to attend. Getting rejected would suck but I’ve seen it happen to plenty of people with your stats. You will probably get waitlisted at the very least in my opinion.
