Ask HN: How to get the most out of an accelerator?

Hi all,

I am due to start what seems to be a very good accelerator program in the next fortnight.

This is a 3 month intense program with a big demo day at the end. There will be lots of introductions made and seminars in between.

Just wanted to get peoples opinion as to how I can get the absolute most out of these 3 months. I really want to give it my all and come out the other end feeling like I have achieved something.

Are there any pitfalls to be avoided?

How can I maximize all the opportunities that present themselves to me?

Any advice or thoughts on the above or anything else are greatly appreciated.
