Founder, trnchย โ€ขย 5m

Getting into IIT was a dream. I tried during my 12th. Didnโ€™t make it. Not even close. Trying again was not an option because I knew the reality. Maybe I knew it all along. I was not a fit. I was a misfit. For the longest time, I believed IITs and IIMs were A-grade colleges and getting into one should be the north star metric. But it took (a lot) time to realize itโ€™s not. Itโ€™s not the exclusive curriculum, professors, dorm rooms, or lecture halls that anchor you in those four years. They can be xeroxed by any private college. Itโ€™s the community. The people youโ€™re around in the early years. It sets the foundation not for your first job, but for the trajectory of your life. The best and worst habits - when reverse engineered - boil down to the people you were around earlier. We built that exact, much-needed community for young founders. A ground outside college to get brutal feedback, warm intros, and talk to people whoโ€™ve been there, done that. Comment 'in the trenches' to get access. See you inside.

Has anyone used this app called StudentTribe? Itโ€™s a community based app for students to find internships and college events. If yes, how was the experience using it?

My First 365 Days as a Startup Founder One year ago on Aug 05, I launched Hexpertify. Not with a grand plan. Not with funding. Not even with a team. Just a raw idea and one strong belief. The first 6 months? Confusing. Quiet. Slow. I didnโ€™t know
