When i was in 2nd year mbbs my main problem was to remember things as it is from the text[to score marks!!] and many times used to get frustrated for not able to do so...
One day by chance i got hold of this wonder book written by H.Lorayne.In this book he explains many good practical techniques[like link system,peg,mnemonics and many more] with demonstrations...i have tried using these techniques and have found them to be quite useful!!...
check these out[Visualization technique has been applied here]
1)Indications of induction of labour-

2) 10 features of severe Pre-eclampsia

3) imagine a leg in an AC...just imagine and keep this picture in your mind...Legionnaire organism[causes pneumonia] common source of infection is contaminated AC...

p.s-if am using these techniques it doesnt mean i have a good memory..it just makes studying more interesting and interactive
sorry for the poor quality of the snaps:)

Nice ideas...i hav tests cmng and I'll try an use them....waise I like diagramamtic reps a lot...it helps :)
I remember that we had a workshop in our office about how to remember birth dates. And the person asked us to associate image with each number. For each number associate a image and then imagine a person doing something with that image. The picture would then always remain and you would remember. Very much like the third part of your post, imagining a leg inside the AC.
the leg in an ac...is really a smart one.
its fun to study this way....and then discussing them with your friends and sharing techniques with each other...
am glad someone has put it in a book
and that you have taken the pains to put up the pictures here...
good job
thanx
