How can I prepare for Jeopardy?

My school is having its grades 7-9 Jeopardy Game they have every year. This year I made it into the semi finals so I have to go against the top 2 in 8th grade and the top 2 in 9th grade. I really wanna get to the finals this year because my older brother won the finals all 3 years. Is there any way I can prepare for the semi finals tomorrow?How can I prepare for Jeopardy?
You could study the topics, if you know them. If not, then make a list of the possible topics (Not specific topics, but general)



So, for example, rather than putting in 'rivers' or 'marine animals' you could put 'oceans'. Then, study each general topic. Then make the topics even MORE general. And study the general topics.



This way, you could know a lot in general, rather than studying specifics and ending up that those weren't really the topics.How can I prepare for Jeopardy?

it will be difficult to prepare in one day, but since you've made it this far you should be ok. just be sure to get a good nights sleep and eat a good meal before you go.



just for the record, I heard Ken Jennings (je is the all time champ) say reading a novels is the best wY to prepare and learn trivia.
This reminded me of a radio episode I heard.
