Will they expect me to know everything about my subject?
No. In terms of preparation, my best advice is read widely and be passionate. You can't fake passion and that combined with ability is what they look for. They are testing how you think rather than your knowledge in an interview. It's natural to be nervous but don't be afraid to ask questions.
