Does anyone know what kind of questions are covered on the video essays for the Boston MSMF program?

Is writing not in vogue any more?

This is what the site says: We know that you are more than what’s on paper. During the online application process, all MS in Mathematical Finance & Financial Technology (MSMFT) candidates are asked to submit three video essays, which allow us to get to know you on a more personal level.
you are only allowed one opportunity. This allows the committee to see your candid responses.

They only have the video essay.

Okay, the rationale behind the video essay is plausible: the written essay could be plagiarized or written by someone else. A video essay is more likely to be authentic.

So I'm assuming questions you usually expect on a behavioral interview like why this program, tell me about yourself etc ?
