Trying to figure out what rating I got for midpoint

Software Engineering Intern at Meta13 hours ago

I had a 1:1 with my manager today after he had the calibration meeting for my internship midpoint. I'm having a hard time figuring out what rating I might've gotten since my manager seemed upset with the results based on his body language but maybe I'm looking too far into it. He said he's not allowed to tell me the rating either.

I told him from the start that I'd like to aim for GE and we were taking an approach where he leaves tasks ambiguous for me to figure out. I'm almost certain I didn't get GE for midpoint since the main thing he mentioned was that an area for improvement is communication (specifically documentation and design docs), this wasn't something mentioned to me before until 1 week ago so it kind of came out of left field and he said even personally it was something he struggled with on his own PSC. He also said to start thinking of XFN opportunities for stretch goals once the project is done but that was already discussed before.

The part that confuses is this, he said I'm doing good and mentioned that all my axes other than communication are good - especially productivity and quality of work, but I'm not sure if that's from an MA standpoint or GE. I thought from this I would at least have still been EE, but near the end of the meeting he said that this is the most competitive cohort he has seen from 4 previous interns he has had and that "I'll try my best to get you an offer for the final review". Maybe I'm letting my anxiety get the best of me (because of the recent layoffs return offers feel dubious) but those two things make me think I might've gotten much worse than EE. I feel like I'm getting completely mixed signals now and feel like I have no idea where I stand, tbh I don't understand why they don't just tell you your rating.
