What are your general comments?

At first, I got my schedule for the day. I met with the first interviewer who was very relaxing and made it easy for me to feel comfortable. After that interview, I had time to fill out some required paperwork. Then I met with my second interviewer, which was a little more like what I would think is a typical interview. More straight forward questions where as the first was more conversational. Then we met with the dean to discuss what will happen now with my application. There are three possiblities 1) Alternate List 2) Hold List 3) Rejection. The class is technically full so the Alternate List is who any additional acceptances are given to.
