Is it usual to be asked about firms during a 3rd round interview?

So today, I just came out of a 3rd round (I guess it's a superday) for an investment advisory firm. I had like 5 interviews today, but the one that really caught me off guard was this partner pretty much interrogating me. He asked me about my high school experience in detail (I'm a senior in college), including my IQ score... and he asked which other firms and companies I was interviewing with and how far I got with each one. I don't know, I felt kind of awkward and uncomfortable answering all these questions. Is this normal/ acceptable? Maybe I'm just being really paranoid..
