Posting this because it reminded me of a tweet by Don Dodge earlier where he said "36,000 high schools in USA, or 360,000 top 10 students. They can't all go to Harvard or Stanford. Only 2,600 4 year colleges. Do the math" (

Compound this with VCs offering to fund students to postpone their education and I do think it is fair to legitimately question (or challenge) our traditional and even conventional education system. Would love to hear thoughts from the HN community and how this applies to startups/tech/entrepreneurship.
