Language Placement Interviews

So I was sad to find out today, about a month after taking the Italian placement exam, that they can not give me any kind of estimate of my placement. Instead, I am scheduled for an “interview” during wildcat welcome and won’t find out anything until after that. Does anyone have any experience to share about these oral interviews (not just for Italian)? Just really stressing me out, especially not having any clue where they would place me now.
