Hi all,
Like many others in the process right now, I am getting ready for one of my MOC interviews soon, and I was hoping to start a discussion about any curveball kind of questions that we candidates might get thrown at us.
Looking through previous threads I've found a few, such as:
"Why do you want to go to the Academy instead of going ROTC or enlisting?"
"Are you prepared to kill someone for your country?"
"Can you describe a time when you made a bad decision?" (I thought of this one as different than the typical 'describe a failure of yours' question)
and
"Why should the American Taxpayer spend $400,000 to send you to an Academy?"
So, are there any such unexpected questions that you have been asked/asked/seen someone asked?
