The day Sam tweeted, got 6500 applications. Many of friends lost hope of selection.I think it doesn't matter whether we get or not. What matter in startups, we must enjoy what we do. Kick ass! Lage raho!

I'm waiting! Application says 'In-progress'...I am refreshing like I did my admissions responses for college, ha.

Good luck to you and the others. Wonder how many people applied in total?

So 6500.. Suppose partners spend 2 min per application. That's 24 working days (9 hour per day with no breaks). Knowing the system with which they'll cut down this time sure must be awesome. Getting selected here is like graduating Ivy League and winning the lottery at the same time:D
