I'm talking specifically about CS, as CS students would be the main group of people who can choose between grad school and YC. The point is probably valid for all science courses.
Good students get paid to do PhDs in science. That's not generally true for grad school in arts and humanities, but those students would rarely be looking to apply to YC/techstars, etc.
- gcheong 17y agoPerhaps he was thinking more of MS programs for which I think most people pay.
- pbiggar 17y agoMaybe. I wouldn't use the term 'grad school' for an MSc program, unless its the first two years of a US PhD. I think the OP is talking about PhD programs too. After all, doing a short MSc doesn't prevent you doing YC afterwards.
