I think I know you. PM me?

  1. HackIndia was won by undergrad students (across 3 different categories IIRC). Don't randomly BS anything. If colleges find out that you are lying on your apps, you will be in a lot of trouble.
  2. Were you accepted to YC S15? Did you go to the US and actually participate there? If not, there is a high probability that you were not accepted to YC. I'm pretty sure that YC W15 interviews will get handed out in October. Again, I think that you need to have an adult share holder in your company to actually apply to YC. Please do a background check on this before you even put this on your app (just to be sure). YC is a pretty huge achievement. Expect adcoms to do a thorough check on this.
  3. 1.5K downloads spread out across 4 apps is like really less. Althought building apps shows some proficiency, it won't help you much. Club them all together if you can.
  4. NCO is chill.. lol school rank one doesn't mean anything.
  5. It's funny how you keep changing your SAT scores and awards/activities in each thread that you make. Don't get me wrong, if you have done each and every thing that you have listed here, there is a good shot that you will get into a good college. But even if a single thing here turns out to be false, you will be in a huge mess.
  6. CS+Entrepreneurship? I couldn't find such a major when I was selecting majors from the list on CA.

Best of luck. My only advice would be to not risk lying on your apps.

I think that I was too harsh in the previous post. Except all the concerns that I raised, you still have good ECs. The 91% in 12th mid will certainly help and your volunteer work sounds cool.

You’re extremely CUTE.

  1. Got a special mention in HackIndia. Didn't WIN, my bad(too enthusiastic)
  2. Invited Didn't Go. Will be going in 2016. I was in the US at the time of the interviews and managed to take one.
  3. If you knew what you were talking about you never would have made that comment. No offence but DUMB move. They start looking at the applications right away. Not sure if you've ever applied but if they were interpreted they would contact you in a span of 2-3 Days. You're WRONG, if your startup gets selected for YC and you don't have a shareholder who is a US citizen, they will help you convert. YOU DON"T KNOW ANYTHING, PLEASE CHECK YOUR FACTS BEFORE COMMENTING. BTW my uncle who owns 10% of my company, is a US citizen.
  4. My test Scores - I got 11 A's and 1 B, my school is extremely strict in evaluation that turns out to be around ~87-88%. My UC GPA turns out to be 3.92. So I assumed My GPA to be a little More. But I'll only be sending my Grades hence I used the RogersHub UC GPA calculator.
  5. (a)Started my blog around 1 week ago. (b) about the Fundraiser, I can PM you the link.
  6. Double Major, CS & Entrepreneurship.
  7. I've talked to the India Head of SRL diagnostics and they'll be implementing it in their systems in the first quarter of 2016.

I have already applied early to Duke, with all the proof sent by email, they didn’t ask for it but I sent it to avoid any conflicts in the near future.

I could provide proof of everything that I mentioned above but that would reveal my Identity.

I’d like you to comment again, so I can slay you more.

*interested.

I have literally no idea who you are. Defaming some random dude on the internet is the last thing on my mind. I just had some concerns and was kind enough to bring them to your attention.

A) you misrepresented your achievement. How the hell are you supposed to justify if anybody comments saying that it is wrong.

B) I happen to know 2 YC alums and I’ll be applying for YC S16, so I know enough to comment on it. I never commented on the LLC formation. The only thing I was curious about was the adult shareholder thing. I’m glad that you cleared that out. FYI, interviews at YC do not work that way. You have one shot at the interviews which are held in person. The interviews for YC W15 are in held November; all on the same day. I have no intentions of furthering this asinine argument. So if you are some whiz who got YC to change the structure, good for you. All the best for your interviews.

C) there is no undergrad entrepreneurship major at Stanford. If you are good enough to get accepted to YC, I’m pretty sure that you are good enough to find that out. (Link: https://majors.stanford.edu/majors-alphabetical/d–g)

Waiting for me to comment so that you could “slay” me shows your maturity. Nevertheless, I wish you the best for your future and I hope that you get admitted to your top choice.

EDIT: No need to provide any proof. I just wanted to clarify a few things, not argue over who you are and what you have achieved.
