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.
1. OLFACTORY = Oh; SENSORY = Some
2. OPTIC = Oh; SENSORY = Say

6. ABDUCENS = And; MOTOR = My

That's the one I learned too...yet until the day I die I will always call CN VIII the vestibulocochlear nerve. I say "And" when I say the phrase but Auditory just doesn't come out when I name the nerve
On Occasion Our Trusty Truck Acts Funny. Very Good Vehical Any How.
Also to remember if the nerve is sensory, motor, or both you can use
Some Say Marry Money, But My Brother Says Big Business Makes Money.
Finally to Remember the foramen associated with the nerve there is

THANKS SO MUCH! I like this one and I think I can remember it! I found the racy ones very funny. I don't want to laugh in an exam nor do I want to write that on the back of my paper and leave it there, LOL.
Thanks to everyone for all the great ideas.
We have to learn the "auditory" as VESTOBULOCOCHLEAR now.
