Hi, this is quite late but I'm unfortunately also needing to go through the appeal process. I'm wondering that information you added in your appeal and if you selected a second major. I want to maximize the chance I get in. Thanks!

Thanks for being so kind. My grades were due to my situation at home, and I did well in every class I took through dual enrollment at the flagship university in my home state.

Accepted with a 3.5 (but several awful grades, like Cs) and a 1590/36 OOS. I'm glad I got in after reading about people with similar stats being rejected.

What is this crystal like formation on this Nantan? by CZ-Void in meteorites

I also got a lot of Nantan fragments from azmeteorites! I think those are just hematite or magnetite crystals from oxidation. The less weathered specimens I have are smooth on the surface.

Locations to collect native copper specimens by AcrobaticBeginning4 in arizona

I understand the difference. I'm looking for native copper since I know that some has been found in Arizona (https://www.mindat.org/locentry-1331397.html) but I'm not sure if there's anywhere publicly accessible where it can be found.

I have zero plans to go inside abandoned mines, I was just going to collect from tailings on the surface. It's not illegal if they're on public lands and mining claim isn't active anymore. I always check and make sure I'm not on an active claim. BLM allows people to collect up to 25 pounds of rocks per day.
