Hi all. I've been keeping up with posts/results from many history applicants, so congratulations to everyone for making it to this point in the process. I need a bit of advice: I have been wait-listed at my top choice school. I have a phone conversation tomorrow with the Director of GS in my department, and I want to make an excellent impression. My feeling is that the conversation is mostly about my place on the waitlist and what would happen in the *incredible* case that I was admitted. However, I want to ask articulate questions and demonstrate my sincere interest in the program. Any suggestions or comments about how to approach the conversation would be much appreciated! Many thanks in advance.
