How many of you here have applied to YC in the past (or for the current batch)? I've been very curious about what affects an application and what makes someone more likely to be invited for an interview or to get in. I've even read a research paper that showed some correlation between one's height and the likelihood of getting promoted to a managing role at the company.

I've been running an anonymous survey for a week now to find some potential correlations. There's about 150 answers so far. I will run it for a little longer to get stronger signals so if you've applied to YC in the past, feel free to partake in it. I will publish the raw results and my analysis sometime next week!
