Here are a list of some of the Medical Mnemonic Sites I use. You really only need to bookmark one of them since they pretty much share the same information.
Email me if you think you know better ones:
#1:
Medical Mnemonics – Probably one of the largest ones out there. Massive database and also a version available [...]
I LOVE MY IPOD. Probably one of the most gay and overstated blog intros ever, but few people can deny the fact that
Apple actually got it right with these.
The average med student spends a majority of his/her time either studying or partying. For both events, music is
usually needed whether it be classical, jazz, rock or [...]

This has to be one of your new found past times. It’s probably one of the most accessible, and innovative, puzzle adventure first person shooters out there. It fills all the needs of a medical student, which are:
a) Being short to play.
b) Being able to use your brain without breaking [...]

Tell me what you think?
Year of The Ox
Just thought I would let you know that this is my year as I was fortunate to be born in the year of our cart pulling friend. Enjoy and take care.
This is an old clip, but I still find it hilarious and so should you. I wish my medical school could pull off something this creative. <Sigh>.

Fallout 3
Platforms: PC, X360, PS3
Publisher: Bethesda Game Studios
Prepare to lose countless hours of your free time because this game reduces your life span quicker than smoking does. I normally don’t put up games that are this long in scope and can take up to 100hrs to see most of the game, but I have to [...]
