Hi Suraj,

Thanks so much for sharing your story. I, too, am a slow reader but excelled in math and science. But even as a good student I still had a teacher who told me if I had a brain, I’d be dangerous. Stinging words that never left me. But both you and I ended up at Yale, so who’s dangerous now?

Lesson learned: never let anyone’s words keep you from achieving your dreams.

Thanks for your wonderful blog,

LBK
