Why are so few people interested in applying for the Thiel scholarshp? I feel that it's obviously more educational than going to school. Are you so afraid of not getting it that you don't bother applying?
Well, if you don't think there's much chance you'll get it there isn't much point in applying, when you could instead be applying for other scholarships that you're likelier to get. Also, many people love college, and many people learn well in an academic environment, and many jobs require a college education.
