I am curious about your experience taking the course. How much time commitment is it? Is it something I can do while working a full time job?

At min, 2-4 hours for office hours per week ( within my group at least )

However, at the core they are pushing you to grow and build a company.

So within my group there are alot of fulltime founders.

Im a fulltime founder myself and have found the experience to be great. Its helped me to ask the correct questions and to move alot faster.

Its also great to have a solid network of other founders to chat with.

In saying this, there are members within our group whom have full-time jobs and simply work alot after hours on their products.

I think I can handle 2-4 hours a week. I am really interested in learning from YC how to grow
