Claire Winkler

Hi, Fredericksburg, Virginia. I'm Claire Winkler. Be sure to watch me on Jeopardy!'s Back to School Week.

How did you prepare for the show?
I read a lot, and I played Jeopardy! on the internet on jeopardy.com, and my mom helped me with that sometimes, and I could answer most of the questions on my own, though, which was fun. And, I just read a lot of books, and I just looked up stuff that I didn't know. But I read a lot anyways, so that wasn't that bad.

What are your favorite categories?
Well, I'd probably like a category about science, 'cause that's one of my favorite subjects in school. WORD ORIGINS, VOCABULARY. If there's a question about pop culture, I'd like that. Um, books.

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
Well, in ten years, I'd like to have graduated from college, and then either be a marine biologist or a surgeon, and before that, I would have liked to have been in the Olympics for swimming.

"This honor roll student participates on both the year-round and summer swim teams."
