This is way too long! A resume should be no longer than one page. Look up resume templates for jobs you are interested.
Great response, cheers!
Since everyone is in now, are the spots that we signed up for in the live in person classes still available to all?
hahahaha that really sucks. Well, I think its gonna be an interesting outcome. Im excited to particpate and see what happens.
I bet that 25-40% complete the course fully. They expected 4000 so it will be around there. We will see. Great move by YC and really excited to experience the program!
I truly think that YC is going to be surprised by the entrepreneurs in this group.
Could you explain what happened more?

4,000 companies were accepted but 11,000 received acceptance emails?

Thanks Sam, I think you can surprise the "rejects" by doing something to inspire them to continue to pursue their projects and dreams, maybe a competition and winner gets something. Maybe invite them to an event in MV and have a party.

Don't rush, there are plenty of options.

Cheers.

I would also like to add how genuinely excited I was, I am going through a difficult time right now and this felt like I was actually going to turn things around. Sure this was bad for everyone but really just terrible timing for me.

Cannot describe how shitty it felt to tell everyone I told that I actually didn't get accepted.
