"boosted applications by 40 percent for the upcoming class"

There is some kind of misunderstanding here. On-time applications for s2011 were up by 84% from w2011.

How does it compare to s2010? I wonder if there are more applications for summer, because you can apply for after graduation, rather than in the middle of the school year.

Wow... I don't envy the work it takes for you and the YC partners to review applications, particularly when the numbers make such a step change.
