Thats a lot of mnemonics! Sometimes the best ones are the ones you make up on your own. For valves I have heard "Apt M" , and "try pulling my aorta". For electrical conduction I always was taught " right to left, top to bottom, front to back."

Don't know what you are using for studying, but I find Khan Academy really helpful. And being a tactile sort of a person, I like to draw stuff.
