The application page says, <i>Groups that submit early have a significant advantage because we have more time to read their applications.</i> Wondering how much advantage is there by submitting 1 week before deadline vs 2 weeks before, etc? Trying to allocate the time more appropriately here. Thanks.
Hi gatsbysong,
imho these questions are an order of magnitude less important than thinking (and building) your product and your application. Show don't tell. I'd add "don't count too". Good luck to you ;-)
I've been told by a YC partner (when I had basically exactly the same question) that the difference is negligible. Work on making the facts of your startup better rather than gaming the application process.
