Many people have been talking about the level prepre alot. I am not familiar is this an ISI thing ? Or just slang?

Pre-pre is pre-preliminary and it is the first level of testing for USFSA levels.

The Pre-Preliminary free skating test includes a waltz jump, salchow, toe loop, 1/2 flip, and 1/2 lutz, and a one foot spin with a minimum of 3 revolutions. It is not a program; the judge asks for each element one after the other. The Pre-Preliminary Moves in the Field test must be passed first. It consists of forward perimeter stroking, basic consecutive edges (forward and back, right and left), forward right and left foot spirals, and a waltz eight pattern. However, at competitions, Pre-Preliminary skaters will have all their single jumps and some will have axels. You'll often see this event divided into axel and no-axel groups.

I believe Clarice's information is correct for skaters in the US. It does vary a bit from country to country. The link below is a great resource for skaters in Canada.
