I would say that she failed this test. But really, I feel that the phone companies are most complicit in this. They're the ones that receive the complaints first and should be able to warn their customers when they're going to get billed at

YC does look at all the applications. PG has said that the majority of the apps come in in the last day/half-day and that they have accepted people who have applied then.
