I think PRing the Bible is a good thing. Then you can spend the rest of your life activating different parts of it.
Multiple previews of different parts of it are extremely helpful in crossreferencing scriptures, especially if you have a good concordance with you to help locate scriptures with keywords.
Prayer and meditation are the best Activation methods available. As well, prayer is the purpose you'd use to preview your Word and skim/dip the chapters to see what you need.
I find that once you have a good grasp of the Word, you don't even need to skim and dip. You open the Word up and the exact scripture is staring you right in the face.
Anything that helps you get deeper into the Word is a good thing.
