When I was taught Pharmacology, I was told to memorize buzz words. Well if there are a million drugs, I have to memorize a million buzz words. Well, I memorized buzz words for the minis and barely passed, but when it came to the finals.... I forgot most of them. So that's not on the list. Understanding and seeing patterns is the way to go!

The "memorization" was the hardest part of Pharm for me BY FAR!! Once I was exposed to mechanisms of action, naming patterns, and the physiologic basis of pharmacology, the memorization of the details actually became EASIER.
