here's one for the 12 cranial nerves (i know it's dirty, but it makes them easy to remember).... "Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, To Touch And Feel A Girl's V@& !#@, Sweet Heaven"
Olfactory,Optic,Occulomotor,Trochle ar,Trigeminal,Abducens,Facial,Vesti bulocochlear,Glossopharyngeal,Vagus ,Spinal accessory,Hypoglossal

and another one to remember which cranial nerves are Motor, Sensory, or Both (again, dirty but easy to remember)....... "Some Say Marry Money, But My Brother Says Big B**bs Matter Most."

and yet another dirty one, this one for remembering the branches of the external carotid artery..... "Some Americans Like F*& $ing On Plush Soft Matresses."
superior thyroid, asecending pharyngeal, lingual, facial, occipital, posterior auricular, superficial temporal, maxillary

i have a few more, but that's probably enough for now. sorry in advance for anyone who takes any offense.

for maxillary branches ...i never had one...just ZZ PNG LMI some how i relate PNG to penicillin G (I have no idea why) and do not forget the begining ZZ and LMI part.

your teachers might have mentioned these already
**C-3,4,5...keeps the diaphragm alive....(spinal ....supplying the phrenic nerve)

**S-2-3-4 keeps your @#$! off the floor.
(lumbar plexus, Sciatic nerve,...)

Can someone come up with one for the branches of the maxillary? I will buy you dinner.

Not really neuro but hey I found this in a neurosurgery board review book: branches of the external carotid artery: SALFOPS Max = superior thyroid, asecending pharyngeal, lingual, facial, occipital, posterior auricular, superficial temporal, maxillary

I know at this point you do not need this one but I like it
