Honestly there's no good answer to this. Do you like excitement, thrills, terror, and chasing opportunity at the expense of all else? That sounds like dropping out. Do you like enjoying less real world responsibility, learning in a structured environment, taking a safer path, etc.? This sounds like staying in school (if you can afford it). One thing I can say is this... It's hard to find a wave worth riding in business. If the startup already has traction and is taking off, you may never again be in that position to enjoy that kind of excitement. If you're just hacking away at something that is more of an idea, and the only thing exciting is that someone put in some money, that is less exceptional communication in my eyes. Whatever you do, decide for yourself. If you're seeking greatness in yourself and for those around you, chances are you'll do just fine on which ever path you choose. Good luck to you. Now go blaze a glorious path that makes a dent in the universe, and enjoy the ride.
