I agree it would be difficult. They could make assumptions based on founders' degree, but difficult to tell as some technical people don't have a degree in EE or CS. Also, people with a EE/CS degree are not necessarily filling a technical role.
Yeah exactly. YC is very good at picking out teams without knowing too much of your background. They go off of what you tell them and don't look much deeper than your prior projects built, degree, and how well the team work with each other.
