Should I apply to B-School?

I am currently an IB analyst at a boutique shop. I have roughly 3 years of experience post-undergrad (Corp Banking/IB) and I have recently received a GMAT waiver from a T10 school for Round 3 admissions. I have always heard Round 3 is pretty pointless to apply to if you are a white male and have a generic background. I have also gone to zero of the networking events (zoom meetings) but am curious to hear everyone's thoughts? This school has accepted a higher rate than normal this year based on admissions for the first 2 rounds. Appreciate any advice.
