Good luck to everyone. I'm currently bracing myself either way.

I looked on the application page, and it removed the link to withdraw the application. It had been up for a long while.

Based on the lack of a thread as well as the lack of any recent replies to this forum, this might be a fool's errand. However, if you have results from Geology/Earth Science/Geoscience graduate schools you'd like to share, please do so. Undergraduate GPA: 3.65 Undergraduate Major(s): Geoscience, English Education Undergraduate Minor(s): Earth and Space Science, Chemistry GRE: N/A TOEFL: N/A Academic honors or awards: Received honors three times, high honors twice, and highest honors twice. Additional Information: I have been teaching K-12 for the past five years. I have had five teaching certifications.

Research: Nil, unless you include coursework Publications: No scientific articles have been submitted, but I did write up a nice article on a local gemstone for a local hobbyist group that was published with their newsletter. I'm fairly sure that caught someone's attention, because a PI asked for a copy.
