Thiel Fellowship Application Advice
- jebus989 13y agoAdvice is fine and it's interesting to hear about one person's success, but you're overstating your opinions. Things like "I cannot over emphasize the importance of this question", if written by someone reviewing applications, would be really valuable insight. But from an applicant (n=1), even a successful one, seems quite baseless.

- jmarbach 13y agoPast and current Thiel Fellows are highly involved in selecting the future classes, including the preliminary application reviews.
- jebus989 13y agoThanks, I didn't know that. Though presumably a 2013 fellow hasn't yet had that opportunity, given the 2014 window is still open.
