Waitlisted at Princeton. Does anyone have any information at all about the waitlist process - for Princeton or other schools? Is there actually a shot in hell of getting in?

In case this is helpful for anyone applying this year or in the future: it was presented as a casual interview in the email invitation I received but it certainly did not feel casual. They asked quite difficult, specific questions about my writing sample. It seems as though the purpose of the interview is to screen for red flags and try to assess how you think in real time.

Would anyone who has already had a Princeton interview be willing to share what kinds of questions they asked?
