Yo, chat, what's up?
Okay, guys, imagine you got rejected from some sort of program. In most cases, they just say, "We had a lot of applicants this year, so we could not accept you, bla, bla, bla."
UzCombinator made an excellent move, though. They didn't say you got rejected; instead, they said you got accepted into a different program. (u see, no confusion.)
Actually, everyone applied to the same program (45-day accelerator program), but they categorized them like this:
TOP 0.84% -> 45-day accelerator program.
TOP 5% (except those 0.84%) -> Founders Camp
Others -> Startup School
