I am a freshman nursing student and in my A and P class we have to learn the 12 cranial nerves. I know that there are a couple little sayings out there to help remember them but I do not remember all of the one I heard before. I know the one was a little sick, but I don't care if it helps me to remember them. I would be very appreciative if someone would reply in the forum or in email if anyone knows what I am talking about or where I could find the sayings.

Thank you very much.

A&P II starts May 4th! I start nursing school in August (a basic nursing assistant course as a pre-req in July). I'm interested in neuro nursing so I HOPEFULLY should remember the Brain, Cranial Nerves and CNS...hopefully! lol
