[B-Greek] relative difficulty of New Testament Greek passages?

I find Mark too choppy to be considered easy translation.  I go to I John, 
then onto something like Colossians, then I Peter, then the hard stuff would 
be Hebrews, and the last step is Revelation (due to the abrupt syntax).

I think Luke/Acts is not bad from a classical standpoint.

I would recommend Mounce's workbook for getting into scripture.  He 
generally uses some of the easier passages mixed with some harder ones.

My students found I John challenging for chapters 1-2, then ok for 3, and 
then easy for 4-5 (with various difficulties spread in).
