Hence, it is suggested to prepare the following questions generally asked in Christ University interviews.

• Q1-Tell me something about yourself?
• Q2-Why do you want to pursue this course?
• Q3-What are your strengths and weaknesses?
• Q4-What do you know about the college?
• Q5-How will you manage in a new city?
• Q6-Why should we take you?
