"My second interviewer barely asked me any questions but talked the entire time about the school, which is very informative but I was worried that he didn't really get to know me. and the first interviewer was very nice but kept on mentioning how i seem overqualified, so i was worried that i wouldn't get in. but 4 weeks later, i was accepted! so if you don't feel so hot after an interview, don't worry about it because it's not a very consistent indicator of whether you'll get in or not.
