The Mushroom Tennis Academy isn't just about on-the-court skills. In Mario Tennis Fever's story mode, you'll eventually need to test your knowledge in a classroom. Professor Toad will ask you a series of questions, and you have to answer them correctly to get your sticker and move on to the next assignment.
There's a total of five quizzes you'll need to ace before you can move on to the next rank, and each one has only three questions. Here are all the questions and answers for each quiz in Mario Tennis Fever's Adventure mode.

All Rank E quiz questions and answers
All the questions in the Rank E quiz cover the game's various shot types, like a Flat or Topspin. In case you were snoozing during Toad's lessons, though, we've got the answers to each question the professor will ask below.
Once you've answered all the questions correctly, Toad will give you a sticker of a tennis ball commending you for your efforts. From here, you'll need only two more before you can move up to rank D and take on tougher opponents. After receiving your sticker, it's time to venture back outside for another practical test. Head to the practice court where a blue Toad will teach you a "special shot," the Star Shot.
All Rank D quiz questions and answers
Rank D's quiz covers player types, like Technical, Defensive, or All-Around—which isn't something your lessons have covered up until this point. Player types names can be quite self-explanatory, though, so Professor Toad's questions shouldn't trip you up too much. But in case you want to double check your answers before embarrassing yourself in front of Baby Luigi, we have you covered.
After correctly answering the final question of the Rank D quiz, Professor Toad will reward you with a flower sticker. Just like with the Rank E quiz, you'll need two more stickers before you can progress to Rank C.
All Rank C quiz questions and answers
Thought you were done with the classroom, didn't you? Guess again! This is a school, after all. The Rank C quiz will once again test your knowledge of player types, so if you struggled with the last one, you better hit the books. Or you could, you know, cheat off us.
All Rank B quiz questions and answers
Rank B is a bit of a special quiz in that it's a two-parter. The first part covers shot types, much like the Rank E quiz, and when to use them. The second part of the quiz is all about courts. And no, none of that was actually covered in the lessons, which is probably why you're here.

Like in any good Mario spinoff, you can play a variety of beloved characters in Mario Tennis Fever. That's right: Every one from Princess Peach to Petey Piranha to Waluigi (and even his baby version!) are taking the court to put their tennis skills to the test.
There's a total of 38 characters in Mario Tennis Fever, not including color variations of certain characters. Each character brings something a little different to the table, too. Some are faster, while others have more power behind their hits. Maybe you want a character who can put a little more spin on the ball, or maybe you'd rather have an all-rounder. Whatever your preferences are, there's a character in the game for you.
Unfortunately for players, not all of the characters are available at the start of your tennis career. Just like with the game's many rackets, some require you to play a certain number of matches while others require you to complete challenges like winning tournaments before they'll join your roster.

How to unlock every character in Mario Tennis Fever
Here are all the characters in Mario Tennis Fever in order of their appearance on the character-selection screen.
All character color variations and how to unlock them
Some characters—like Shy Guy, Yoshi, or Koopa Troopa—come in various colors, but you won't be able to play as any outside of the base version to start. You'll have to first unlock them, though how to do so is a little less clear than the requirements for base characters.
Koopa Paratroopa
Koopa Troopa
Luma
Shy Guy

Fever Rackets can help you get an edge over your opponents in Mario Tennis Fever, so you'll want to choose carefully when it comes to picking the best one for your playstyle.
There are a total of 30 Fever Rackets for you to unlock in Mario Tennis Fever. Some Fever Rackets, like the Fire Flower Racket, shoot fireballs across the court with every swing, while others, such as the Ghost Racket, make both the player and the ball invisible. Like with the game's playable characters, you can unlock more rackets by completing certain requirements, such as clearing ranks in Adventure mode or by simply playing matches.
Here are all 30 Fever Rackets in Mario Tennis Fever and how to get them.
