What was the hardest question you got in your bad cop experience?
I realize this isnt directed at me but im going to pitch in anyways. Mine went down a whole series of questions about company ethics and ethical theory - and this was an oil and gas executive so I had to tread carefully....

It wasn't the difficultly of the questions for me, more the persistence with follow up questions, and really the lack of belief/recognition in my answers (or so it seemed). Whereas the "good cop" would tend to agree with my answers and follow up with his own experiences, the "bad cop" would either find a rebuttal, or ask how I had improved what I had discussed in future scenarios, or how I thought INSEAD would help.
