I am preparing a talk, and she recommends that enwerfen (to design), erarbeiten, or erstellen all work, as does aufarbeiten. fertigmachen also works if I will do it to completion. aufbereiten is when you already have something that you wish to improve. And perhaps most important, the false friend präparieren is only for preparing bodies for studying anatomy. "präp" courses would not help you ace your SAT exams. anfertigen is for building objects from other parts (like building tables, or writing a draft), anmachen for lighting a candle, herrichten for making something look nicer. rüsten is to be well prepared, as in "ich bin gerüstet dafür."
