Can you take a year off of school?

I feel like a very large number of startup founders that ended up successful probably would not have seen much evidence that that would happen within two or three months.



I can, yeah. I would be completely willing to do that, too.

At the same time, I still wouldn't want to miss my first two semesters. And I don't think there's much of a loss to be had waiting an extra few months.
