Etikaf???

Hi all!
I am Insha Allah going for a 3-day etikaf tomorrow.I wanted to know from any of you who have ever been through an etikaf or have general knowledge regarding it:

  1. What surahs i should read? (e.g. i will definitely read surah yaseen, surah noor, surah rehman)

  2. Can any one tell me the benefits of each surah. Normally it is said that read this surah for the betterment of this, for the uplifing of this, for the resolution of a problem. So in that context does any one know which surah is preferable for what purpose?

3.Other than reading the Quran, performing nafil, namaz what else can i do during etikaf?

Thanks!
