How do you remember the 12 cranial nerves? There's this one really funny acronym that I heard a long time ago but I can't remember how it goes... thanks
I used the same 2 in the above post...just changed the last word to hymen to keep w/ the virgin theme...DOctorJay said:Oh Oh Oh To Touch And Feel Virgin Girls' Vaginas And Hips
olfactory, optic, occulomotor, trochlear, trigeminal, abducens, facial, vestibulocochlear, glossopharyngeal, vagus, spinal Accessory, hypoglossal

M = motor
S = sensory
B = both
you'll have the top mnemonic down in no time, but function is what's really important and the second mnemonic tells you whether each nerve is motor, sensory, or both.
also check www.medicalmnemonics.com for less offensive versions or just different ideas that may work better for you.
enjoy
