Poll: Did you get into YC for S11?

Please only respond if you applied so that we can get as much of an accurate count as possible.

Also if you want to share your start-up and why you think you did/did not make it that would be quite useful too.

    Seeing as I haven't received any notice of getting in, I'm going to presume that I didn't get in.

    The reasons were probably three-fold, firstly being a considerably younger age than probably all of the other applicants, and the resulting financial dependence on my parents and being in high school would be a huge factor I think because I don't have a fundamental need to start a startup in order to survive. The second reason is probably lack of a co-founder. I'm doing this alone, and I don't like doing it alone myself, but I can deal. The third reason is probably a poorly written application/explanation of what I'm trying to do.

    Please note that this should be changed to: "Did you get invited to YC for S11?"

    Have they already contacted everybody they're going to contact?

    No news is bad news it would seem. So I guess that would be No.
