Ask PG: Applying to YC

8 pointslachyg4 comments

Hey PG,

I've heard that it's reasonably important to apply early, but I'm at least 1 month away from a functional prototype of my site.

Is it worth submitting now with what I've got at the moment? Or should I wait? Or should I give both a go?

Cheers

Wait till your application is 90% as good as it will ultimately be.

Thanks Paul, I have one other question that may have been answered before, but... Do you issue notices (for acceptance / rejection) all in one go, or as the team has reviewed each application?

Nevermind, found it.

When I applied a year back, all notices were sent at the same time and the rejections were all identical.
