We're trained to polite, and nothing more.Or does everyone get that? They said stuff like "you have an impressive resume" and "I hope to see you next year." This was at UVA, by the way.
Just smile and thank them.May I extend this question a little bit? How would I respond to this type of polite compliment during interviews? Is a smile and say "Thank you" enough? How about if I say "I am privileged to have this opportunity to do XYZ ....." or something along this line? Would this make me sound too calculating? ("Oh, this person tries to play the humble card")
The success of your application relies on far more than one person's opinion.Does it mean anything if an interviewer says positive things to you during an interview? Or does everyone get that? They said stuff like "you have an impressive resume" and "I hope to see you next year."
UVA has (or at least had) a 66% acceptance rate OOS and 80%+ acceptance rate IS s/p interview, so if you interviewed there, chances are you will get an accept, and they usually give you a decision within 2 weeks.
Unless things have changed substantially from 4 years ago.
According to MSAR, they interviewed 133 in state, and 70 something matriculated. I don't know what that means in terms of raw acceptance numbers, though.

DOESN’T MEAN A DAMN THING....or atleast 85% of the time. Found out the hard wayOr does everyone get that? They said stuff like "you have an impressive resume" and "I hope to see you next year." This was at UVA, by the way.

Edit: Just saw the post above me. I was strictly referring to medical school. Like many users above me have posted, med schools are unpredictable. Don’t get your hopes up like I did, until you get your acceptance in the mail. That bone crushing disappointment and heartbreak is scarring
