Can you cover any more head/neck anatomy, identifying cranial nerves, sinuses, ventricles, etc for dental students! This video and your muscles of mastication video are lifesavers. Will be sharing with all my classmates. Thank you so much!!
You’re a real life changer for med students. Please cover the whole body if you can, and keep those mnemonics coming, they’re pure genius. 👏 And I was just wondering how you come up with these mnemonics, I’d deeply appreciate an answer if you have time. 😊
Thank you for the comment and thanks for asking about my mnemonics! To answer your question, for a basic mnemonic, like to remember a name, I mostly just try to think of connections to other more familiar names or objects. For example, a mnemonic I didn't use for this video, but had written, was for the foramen magnum. I start by thinking of different "magnums" I know of. There's a magnum ice cream bar, a gun, and a condom. The foramen magnum is basically the same circular shape and size as a magnum condom, so I think it's a good mnemonic and memorable, but I skipped it, since there we already some risqué Mnemonics in this video. But that the basic idea. Just trying to build connections from unfamiliar to familiar things. It can take time, of course, to think these things up, so it's tough when you're in school to spend study time thinking up Mnemonics that may not work in the end. I'm lucky that I'm not studying for any tests and I can spend extra time coming up with Mnemonics that hopefully are memorable. Hope that helps!
I also think of the condom for the foramen magnum but i think of it as magnum is a big condom and the foramen magnum is the biggest hole. @MemorizeMedical
I highly appreciate Your videos are explanatory and awesome for understanding. Please describe other features of the skull, such as ethmoid, sphenoid, and other important features of the skull.
