Efflorescence are minerals that are being carried by moisture to the surface and an indication of excess moisture issues. What happens is, water infiltrates the block or the concrete wall and dissolves minerals.
If you have better alternatives, by all means pursue them, but a year at VCU is far better than community college, and you can get that transfer if you want, (but ace the grades, a 3.0 at VCU won't buy you much in the transfer market.) Hope this helps, good luck! 0 Â· Reply Â· Share on Facebook.
Would a 3.86 GPA be considered high for some tier 1 colleges and lower ivies? I ask this because the top 10-15% of my high school (average public high school) are valedictorians with 4.0s, which pushes me to like the top 20-25%.
