Good luck!
I agree, i live in Queens and having commuted from Queens to Jersey and all in between, i would also recommend taking Airtrain to LIRR to Penn.

Est. cost & time:

Airtrain - $7, about 20 min to Jamaica
LIRR from Jamaica to Penn - $5 (off peak), $7 (peak), another 20-25 minutes
Penn to Newark - $14 (not sure of cost diff. peak/offpeak), i think 45 minutes?

thats roughly $30 on about 2 hours of travel time

or... double the $ and cut the time in half with a cab?

actually, check this site out: shuttles to/from JFK/Newark
