There is a "reverse" function; you could implement it yourself as a
tail-recursive function if you wanted (it's currently implemented in C,
so my guess is it's even more efficient). You don't need vectors for
that.

(define (my-reverse-aux accumulation list)
  (if (null? list)
      accumulation
      (my-reverse-aux (cons (car list) accumulation) (cdr list))))

(define (my-reverse list)
  (my-reverse-aux '() list))

(my-reverse '(a b c d e f g h))
