Although i'm sub-30 AVG, I do not have full PLL down. I was wondering what order is the best to learn them in. I still need to learn the G perms (im scared of them) and the N perms, what is the easiest way to learn these in to not forget them?

G perms aren't that bad: I found learning completely different algs for each one helped me. For example, I solve Gc with R2 F2 R2 [R perm] R2 F2 R2, Gd with the inverse of that, Gb with F' U' F R2 u R' U RRURUururrURU, and Ga with RRURururURUR F' U F (yeah, I can't remember what they're supposed to be :p). The first two of those feel completely different to each other, and same with the last two: in one alg the bit with F moves is at the start, and in the other it's at the end. One N perm is R U R' U [J perm] U2 R U' R', and that's also very easy to learn.

But really, the most important thing to do is to practise it over and over until you can remember it. Then do that again a few hours later. Then check to see if you know it in the morning, and time how fast you can do it. If you can do that then you probably know it well enough.
 
Learn the T perm first. (If you use Bob Burton's algs)a lot of permutations are based off it or have some of the same techniques used in it. As for G perms, force yourself to learn the algorithms first, and learn how to recognize them later-by corners.
