"Tell me about a difficult situation"
"Why did you choose (your major)"

What was the most interesting question?

No question I got was particularly interesting, but the overall experience was really nice. My faculty interviewer was very chill, and it was more like a conversation than an actual interview.

Honestly, none of them were difficult.
