Narrative:

After landing at teb we received an IFR to ewr as follows: teb 5; maintain 3000 ft; expect vectors to the ILS runway 22L at ewr. WX was about 1400 ft overcast with about 2 mi visibility; winds southeast at 15 to 20 KTS; rainy; turbulent. First officer flew the leg from the left seat. We anticipated a long delay but were advised to start engines immediately as clearance was obtained; and they would get us right out. FMS was set up and the briefing was made quickly while taxiing out. Also we had to brief the SID and the ILS runway 22L and get everything set up. They pulled us out of the lineup and cleared us for takeoff right away. I felt that we were in a rush. Departed on runway 24 and all seemed to be normal until the controller instructed us to descend immediately back down to 1500 ft. This was rapidly complied with. Somehow we started to climb prematurely. Although we fly in and out of this airport frequently we always review all SID's per our operations manual. ATC vectored us for the ILS. They did not request a phone call or indicate that they wished to pursue this in any way. New york departure did a good job in preventing a potential problem.
