Ridiculous and irresponsible post.

It will only work well if the MBP's RAM is the same specifications as the new iMac.

Not at all. Before the post was edited, it stated a 2012 MacBook Pro and a 2014 iMac. They both use the same memory, PC3-12800 SODIMMs @ 1600Mhz with 204 pins. Thus, there is nothing wrong or incorrect with my post.
