I've gone over my interview repeatedly and have settled on it going ok--not poorly but not great. Obviously it's probably not possible, but I would love it if an adcom could tell me what they don't like about my application. Part of the frustration is not being sure what's holding me back.

I can't remember hardly anything from mine, only one or two "dumb" things that I said. A friend asked me about it after and I was like "idk, she asked some questions.." and that was as specific as I could remember.

Doubtful. My guess is that dreamerchic is just being annoyingly optimistic.

Only trying to say that your post was carelessly vague. A lot of people less jaded than I might read it, as Trig did, and think things were happening.

There is a strict difference between "I think there might be more JS2s today."
and
"More JS2's coming!!!!!!"
