It really depends on your background and the interviewer.
I am in stats major, so I was asked to solve a probability question, some definitions on PCA/Time Series/Linear Regression/BS, solving easy derivative and integral... etc.
Hope it helps

Yes, and also depends on the alumni who interviews you.

 

[Mdxu]

And it depends on what you wrote on your resume and your background.
