YC Application Advice From a 6x Reject

The hard truth: You're not going to get into YC. You're not going to get an interview and your application isn't going to be read in full by anyone who doesn't love you.

You will be rejected.

That might sound harsh, but it's the likely outcome for the vast majority of applicants.

But don't let it phase you. Buckle down, find people that you can rely on, work hard, and you're going to do fine.
