Make sure you have questions for the author as you activate. If you have no questions you fall into the trap of passive reading.
When studying activate a chapter until it gels. Be sure to mind map as you go for daily review if you need to know the information for exams. Mind maps are easier to review than notes.
If you think you need more from a book activate more. Activate until you're finished. You're finished when you've satisfied your purpose and don't feel you need more from the text.
