At the end of my interview for Medical School, my interviewer says, "Maybe I'll see you next year."

Is this statement a neutral thing or a good thing? How many different ways can this statement be interpreted?

Thank you.

Well what did you expect when you say "a rhetorical question"? By definition you were asking a question you didn't want/expect an answer to. Or were you just throwing the word around without knowing what it means?

Ok I didn't want to own you but you pushed it.

Dictionary says:

rhe·tor·i·cal (ri-tôr'i-k?l, -tor'-)
adj.
Of or relating to rhetoric.

I envy you for only putting a link, and being able to resist the urge to say "Looks like you're the only one being owned here."
