Is a 1.5 hour long interview normal?

Interviews with BB upcoming, without giving away too many details, one of the three interviews I will be going through is an hour and a half long.

I've done a few superdays which were anywhere from 2 to 4 hours of conversation but never before have I sat with one individual for an hour and a half before. At most I've spoken with one individual for a half hour which seems is normal.

My instinct is that maybe a half hour of time will be taken up for a case study? What do you think?

Thx all

Thanks for a replay, this is an interesting perspective. I guess I had not thought of that as an option as the other interviews times were already given to me so I assumed the three time slots were for three separate people. Maybe I will be meeting with more than 3 individuals as you are suggesting. Thanks for the perspective!
