Mine was on the semiconductor business, which I was quite unfamiliar with. My advice is that you should familiarize yourself with every sector and understand the basics of how business is conducted in each. I had a solid understanding of business but because I was unfamiliar with semiconductor, I missed some of the basic questions that could have been answered with a simple review.
