  • Dreamers can be impatient, unwilling to become well-rounded, and most of all, hard to fit into existing systems.

      I strongly disagree with this statement. Dreamers are willing to do whatever it takes to reach their goals, and therefore they are willing to put in work. To work towards something, a result, may require a lot of patience. A dreamer will find that patience and make their dream a reality. As for being a well-rounded individual, I don't see how chasing dreams affects that area at all.

      I agree! A good score on an SAT doesn't prove anything but the ability to memorize a bunch of facts; it is not a good indicator as to whether or not the test taker will be able to apply skills to real life situations.
