Neuroanatomy Learning Modules

Finish all that and youll have a huge leg up on knowing high yield neuroanatomy. Plus, it will help you build your mental map. I highly suggest doing it as early as you can. It does not take long to do.

Know every word on every single slide of your professor ppt slides for Neuro. Honor that class through brute memorization.

I had ZERO neuro experience before. I didn't even know what a cranial nerve was, but these videos were extremely helpful to get a brief overview to base my studying.
(and the 3 drawn anatomy videos)
(and the other 3 spinal tract videos)

Considering the timing of your post and the location of your profile, I'm going to assume that you and I go to the same school. For psych, literally memorize the packets that are given for the In-house exams. One thing I wish I did (since I'm currently preparing for boards) is go through First Aid during the course to make sure there aren't any details that are missing. For neuro, lectures are going to be your key for in-house exams. Unfortunately this will involve a lot of brute memorization (since it's a combo of the density of anatomy, combined with the fact that you can't really visualize most of what goes on in neuro). The course actually has a biochemstry/metabolism-esc component to it in terms of communications between different nuclei/brainstem/etc. for different functions. Whatever strategy you used to study metabolism will be helpful.

In terms of resources. High-yield neuroanatomy was an amazing book if you are completely lost on a subject and don't know where to start. It's definitely much better than BRS
