Meritocracy; Achieving a dream

Meritocracy is defined as "an elite group of people whose progress is based on ability and talent rather than on class privilege or wealth." I do believe that this is true, anyone who strives at a goal, can achieve it. The American dream is based off of this belief, if you work hard enough, you can become wealthy and achieve the dream. In a class divided, students were divided into two groups, each separated by eye color (Brown and Blue). One day one group would be labeled Superior and the other group inferior. In this case, students who were labeled superior scored much higher and were able to concentrate more in school related area, thus accomplishing more goals. If a student labeled superior believes he has a talent superior to the others, he will go on and progress more, like the definition for meritocracy states.
