He asked me basic questions, age, where I lived ,if I was married, did I go to college, if I was depressed etc. he asked me how I felt when I felt anxious. He also asked if I was suicidal, heard voices or hallucinated.
Then he did the math part, start at 100 and subtract 7 all the way down to 1, he stopped me at around 50, maybe because I was using my fingers and messed up. He gave me a set of numbers and asked me to repeat them backwards. And finally he asked me to start at 1 and keep adding 3 till I get to 30.
At the end he told me that he did not make the decision but that he really hopes I get disability. That made me feel better. Now I wait.....hopefully not too long.

Hope this helps you get your disability......sounds like you had a decent dr which quite a lot of people don't get....so glad you did.

Stay positive about it and let us know how you're doing.
