#2From what I can tell, YC Startup School's first batch had 10K applicants, 3K accepted companies and 800 graduates presenting.
It was very helpful for us (MoQuality) and seems like a huge success overall. Thanks YC! :)

#3Another happy graduate - the program was great!
I highly recommend others to sign up for the next cohort when the opportunity arises. The weekly calls, content, and team spirit was all really motivational and taught me tons.
Here's my presentation for Monkey Test It. Check it out and let me know what you think:

#4We had a great experience. Thanks to all of the mentors, who spent hours per week helping all of the participants in office hours.
We're working on Moonlight (https://www.moonlightwork.com), where we're helping companies hire expert software engineers as part-time consultants. We grew from no revenue before Startup School to thousands of dollars per week in revenue.

even considering that some companies have decided to not make a public presentation less than 30% graduating rate (3K to ~800) seens to be very low.

#6Big thank you to Steven for making the entire logistics work and Russ CTO and co-founder at Rainforest QA our advisor for his help, advice and support.

#7I like the sense that I can get a broad overview of what is out there and what the market looks like by seeing such a large sample of successful companies.
How do you guys pick the categories?
I ask because some categories are largbe (B2B) and there seems to be a lot of overlap. (i.e. what if there is a B2B company that is also a developer tool?)
There are also some categories that I cannot find. There isn't, for instance, a data science category.
Thanks in advance.

I guess lot of companies just took the credits for AWS/Google/Microsoft and got tired with the weekly video calls...
Their loss...

#10The experience was great.
Aside from really great advisors, the group spirit and interacting with fellow founders was best part of the program for me.
Shoutout to our advisor, Joshua, and others at YC for all their time and hard work.
I will be launching in a few weeks, here is my presentation: https://www.startupschool.org/presentations/791
