Technical questions — how to get started?

How to get started on preparing for the technical questions in interviews?

Is it better to start with the 400 questions guide? or Rosenbaum? or WSP Red Book? or is there anything else you recommend?

I read R&P and took notes and actually understood the material. Never had to memorize stuff or cram the guides and haven't been challenged technically in any interviews. If you read Rosenbaum and actually take the time to learn the concepts, you will be prepared to handle any technical.
