Seeing as I haven't received any notice of getting in, I'm going to presume that I didn't get in.
The reasons were probably three-fold, firstly being a considerably younger age than probably all of the other applicants, and the resulting financial dependence on my parents and being in high school would be a huge factor I think because I don't have a fundamental need to start a startup in order to survive. The second reason is probably lack of a co-founder. I'm doing this alone, and I don't like doing it alone myself, but I can deal. The third reason is probably a poorly written application/explanation of what I'm trying to do.
I can understand your disappointment but at the time of your posting it was barely the 7th. It seems you have already discounted yourself long before today happened... which is a shame.
Based on reading their general requirements, the biggest issue was that you were alone. They really want you to have two or more founders...just because of the rigors of running a startup.
