I'm a huge fan of doing the readings in order since you're going to do a comprehensive review after finishing all of the reading anyway. A lot of people disagree with me on this since Ethics needs to be fresh in your mind for the exam, but I think that doing the readings in order is the best.

Also -- do the questions at the end of the readings after finishing the reading for that section. If you wait until the end, you'll have 9million questions to do, and frankly they won't get done. The questions are awesome because they test your ability to apply what you've just read, which is the most important part since you'll be expected to do the same on the exam.
