Interview Track in CS BSc

I have been doing my research on the university for a few months now, but I have not been able to find any answers on what goes on during the on-site interview that they offer during the application process. Is there going to be a test? Or just a normal academic interview, checking my math skills and so on. I want to see if it is even worth going with it. I want to go with this path because I have not taken an SAT or any other internationally recognized test, my country's university entrance exams work a bit differently since we have to write more subjects. The truth is that my profile isn't as great as I have seen with people here, matter of fact I am pretty sure I am not good enough with my current university grades (about 2.0 German, but improving). I am relying on my experience and theoretical knowledge that I have in CS. I am on my 2nd year at my current university and also working part-time while preparing for the IELTS test (I just need it for a piece of paper that says I know English). I am paying for everything myself and the stress is really affecting me in general and I can't take on having a 2nd "abitur" year just for an SAT test due to my financial situation. I am not trying to whine or feel sorry about myself for my current situation, but I just want to know how realistic it would be for me to be given an opportunity for an on-site interview? If I somehow do, what should I expect? I have a few more questions as well that I would love to ask people here, but I want to do it in the DMs, if that is alright with you all. Thank you in advance.
