The best thing you can do to get ready for the contest is practice solving problems as much as possible. An excellent site for past acm/icpc problems is this site.
University of Valladolid has a contest site with an enormous problems archive. You can even send your answers to the online Judge. Follow this link.
Here's also a link to previous Arab and North Africa Regional Contest problems for the years 1998 , 1999 , 2000 , 2001 , 2002 , 2003 , 2004 and 2005 .
