I've read before that many YC companies were rejected multiple times before being accepted on their 3rd, 4th, 5th tries. Dropbox is one of those.

  Did they apply with the same idea/product? Or was it Dropbox each time?

    Drew originally applied with an SAT test prep company. He's lucky that he was rejected, otherwise he may have spent years working on that instead of starting DropBox.

      Or he might have been running a huge SAT test prep company now.
