No. It's almost certainly a mistake to leave school to start a startup at 17, and particularly so if you don't have a cofounder. I don't think anyone should consider starting a startup at 17 unless it's one of those rare situations where you stumble on something that takes off, and not focusing on it full time would mean letting it die. Zuckerberg was in this position, for example. But it is extremely rare.
