Will I be Grilled?
I am a current sophomore, and on my resume I included a Breaking Into Wall Street course I took.
Will I be grilled on this during interviews?

Doubt it. You're a sophomore; i'd hope interviewers would know better than to ask you mindless questions that they already know you probably can't answer. If they, it's to see how you act in stressful situations because they're being dicks. Try to answer honestly, and if you get stuck/don't know, just be honest and offer looking into it the next day.
TL;DR: just focus on what you learned to be prepared to answer any easy ones.
Should I expect strictly behavioral questions?
It'll be as follows: - majority: why banking - some: why you (behavioral) - rest: how doest a change in depreciation effect NI / is a stock for stock accretive/dilutive / what's more accretive: cash or stock, etc, etc
I agree with bankbanker101. You will be expected to have basic technicals down cold, but that is expected for any interviewee. I took several Wall Street Prep seminars though local universities and put the experience on my resume. No bank asked me about the courses or grilled me on technicals. With that said, be able to speak intelligently about the material that you covered in the course.
BUMP.... I am interested in this as well.
This must be a joke...anything on your resume is fair game. You should know your resume cold and be able to explain every line. This is the first thing you learn when prepping for interviews, come on.
Thanks for the input thus far. If anyone else can chime in, I'd greatly appreciate it.
