Thanks to this article, knowing what they think will help you simulate the game of future funding rounds.

I keep in my mind that the same thing can be said to entrepreneurs. talk to VC's like you know them in person to person.

How would YC read second, third and so-on submitted application form? Should I submit as much as I can whenever I fill a chunk so that they would have more time reading("Early submissions have a significant advantage"), or would this just make them read less on further submission?

We don't do a lot of re-reading, so I'd wait till you're pretty near done to submit.

In any way, would YC consider the language barrier if the applicants were outside the English-Speaking countries?

[pg → kenzan100]

We don't worry about language barriers except to the extent they make founders incomprehensible in the application or interview.

Thanks for that comment, I'm relieved a bit.
