Okay... are you going to just Universal Studios, or Islands, too? If you're going to both I'd reccomend spending the majority of your time @ Islands while stopping in to maybe ride Mummy @ US. Here's two strategies depending on what park you're going to:
Islands and Studios: Head straight Islands and then to Marvel and ride Hulk, then Spiderman. Proceed directly to Toon Lagoon and hop on Dudley and Popeye. Go on to Jurassic Park and do the River Adventure, followed by Dueling Dragons. Head into Seuss Landing and ride Cat in the Hat and the Trolley Ride if you'd like. Then head over to US, pray for a manageable wait @ Mummy, ride. Then go to Jaws and ride (wait shouldn't be too bad...) followed by praying for a manageable wait @ MIB. Finally hit Terminator 2:3D, which never really has lines anyway.
Studios Only: Head straight to Mummy and ride, followed by passing Jaws and riding MIB. Backtrack slightly to Jaws, and then go ride ET and then T2:3D. If you still have time try Shrek 4D and Twister. If there's still time try Jimmy Neutron.
Islands Only: Go straight to Marvel and ride Hulk, Spiderman, and Fearfall in that order, and then go to Toon Lagoon and ride Dudley/Popeye in that order. Head into Jurassic Park and do the River Adventure followed by Dueling Dragons in Lost Continent (both sides if you want). Then try Poseidon's Fury. Next go to Seuss Landing and ride Cat in the Hat and the Trolley Ride. If there's still time, see the Sinbad show or go back for re-rides.
EDIT: Coaster-wise, Hulk would be a better start (a bit smoother, it isn't inverted, and there are no near-collisions like in DD).
Hope that helped you out,

If you're staying on-property, Universal Express will make all the "which attraction when?" questions obsolete...
If you're not, then I've got another suggestion for Islands of Adventure. Everyone seems to go to the Hulk first (and logically it'd seem like you should follow the crowd). However, I went the other way to Dueling Dragons first. A view like this in that section of the park (Lost Continent) doesn't last for long. :wave:

:snore: lolzzzzz!! :snore:
anyway....
hulk is alot better then dueling dragons... but id advise you to get a front of line pass can be bought for as little as $15 off of the universal website prior to your arrival (mind you about $15 per park...) you can only use them once per ride - but you will get a huge bulk of the rides out the way that way

For the studios, head in and head straight back for Mummy. If the wait is long, do single riders. Then move over to Jaws. The line seems to move fairly quickly for me here and I've never had to wait more than 20 minutes to ride this. Then go to MiB and again if the lines are over 25 minutes take the single rider line. Finally head down to Hollywood and check the times for T2:3d. I'd also recommend doing the horror show as I personally think its the best show in the park. If you've still got time left then either hit ET or Shrek depending on which you prefer. Shrek's lines are always shorter later in the day as it seems everybody tries to hit that first thing in the park.
