How do you study for jeopardy?
I don't think it's something you can study for. At least not in a short amount of time. Too many broad range of topics to cover. If you always had an intellectually curious mind, then most of this stuff should come naturally to you through a lifetime of experience. But if you really want to try cramming a lifetime of knowledge, then I'd say read encyclopedias, magazines(National geographic, TIME, etc), wikipedia, etc...
Another answer: In addition to the above information, one should also watch current episodes of Jeopardy to become familiar with some of their category styles such as "Before and After", "Rhyme Time" and the like, where the clues are more tongue in cheek and usually require more wit and logic than specific knowledge.
Become familiar with basic Jeopardy categories such as History, Geography, Entertainment, Sports (much like how the game Trivial Pursuit focuses on these categories.) Obviously, such categories are extremely broad but can be broken down into more specific categories such as US Presidents, Capitals of the World, Movie Stars and Directors, etc.
Also, one could practice making the most advantageous wagering in Final Jeopardy - not everyone wins by getting the answer right, sometimes they make the best wager, taking into consideration the category, their opponents, and the likelihood of any of the three contestants getting the answer correct.
What is the most frequent answer on Jeopardy?
My guess would be "I rung in too early" or "What is" (and then the person trying to come up with an answer and not saying anything before there time expires)

Does jeopardy use the same final jeopardy questions?
Jeopardy does not reuse Final Jeopardy clues. However, due to the category and wording of a Final Jeopardy clue, it is possible to have duplicated Final Jeopardy questions. An example of this would be the episodes of March 18, 2008 and September 23, 2009. Though very different clues, the response to each is 'Who is Guy Fawkes?' There have been instances where answers/questions have been reused in the regular rounds of Jeopardy. Also, the writers have been known to take answers that remained unopened at the end of a round and turned those answers into a hodgepodge category in single or double jeopardy in a later episode.
