As a general remark, we know that late submissions are not our best shot, as we usually find them incomplete, so be aware that the sooner you submit your proposals, the better chances you have to adjust them to mentors' requirements, and in the end, better chances to be selected. </div><div>We have noticed some proposals have been submitted as final. We cannot access them until deadline, so, unless you also share the google docs as public, we don't have a way to give you feedback and we will be evaluating your final proposal as it is, so you have less chances, or none at all if your proposals hasn't been discussed anywhere in public channels. </div><div>Even if you have had some contact with a potential mentor, remember that the proposals discussion must happen in public channels, as it is always the case in open source communities. </div><div>Last but not least, remember that <span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:small;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);float:none;display:inline">GSoC is a highly competitive program, we prioritize quality over quantity, this means that we only accept excellent proposals.
