weird

Thanks in advance for reading! Not URM. Currently a senior at a NYC private undergrad. Taking a gap year. 521 MCAT (132/128/131/130) cGPA: ~3.9 sGPA: ~3.95 (I'm a chemistry major/math minor, received As in all my prereqs and chem major courses, just a couple A-s in upper level math classes)...

Do you ever get the impression after the other schools question that the interviewer believes you may gain an acceptance to a more competitive school? Has anyone else had similar experiences? How did you attempt to diffuse the situation?
