Yikes. Awesome. I absolutely mentioned the SAT to prove I was smart, because, frankly, it's all I've got to prove it. Just saying I was kicked out of school says a lot, but it doesn't tell the entire story. It was to prove I'm smart enough to do something, not so smart that I don't have to do anything. I've worked at several startups in the past and loved all of them. But in each case I was only looking for summer work at the time, so it didn't go anywhere. And as for the "build something NOW" advice, I hear you. Thanks for the kick in the pants. The Internet is nice in that people feel entirely free to tell you the truth.
