About Med Mnemonics (Evan Schoenberg)

mnemonic, noun: a short rhyme, phrase, or other mental technique for making information easier to memorize [from Greek mnēmonikos, "relating to memory"]. Med Mnemonics is a unique learning tool with over 1900 of them.

Mnemonics got me through medical school and the USLME steps. Wherever you are within the allied health professions - medical school, nursing school, NP school, PA school, residency, and beyond - you can improve your knowledge base in the short and long term with these key associative memory aids.
Medical Mnemonics puts 1796 clever acronyms, rhymes, and memory tricks on your iPhone or iPod Touch, covering topics ranging from Anatomy and Biochemistry to Pharmacology and Surgery.

The database is fully searchable and can be quickly filtered by discipline and by system. Create a Favorites list, and search and filter it similarly.

The best mnemonics can be those you make yourself. Add your own mnemonics to the database, where they'll appear seamlessly alongside those which come with the program. Submit them instantaneously to the Medical Mnemonics server for review by an MD (that's me!) and inclusion in the next version.

You can email any mnemonic to a colleague from within Medical Mnemonics. He or she can view it within the email or add it to their own copy of Medical Mnemonics with a single click.

Updates will be free for life and will include new mnemonics submitted by users (that's you!) and added as we all continue learning together.

Every mnemonic is physician-reviewed, but we're only human. If you find a mistake, email us; we will pay a $5 bounty per substantive mistake found to the first reporter of that mistake!

Great app, functions well

Contains a wealth of mnemonics. I've been using this alongside my board prep qbanks to look up useful mnemonics. It would be nice if the database was updated periodically with new content.

StephanGFXsgzhsixhVersion: 20
4.5 Stars

This is the best one location scource for medical mnemonics that Ive found to date at the apple site. There is a favorites tagging, and you can edit a mnemonic if its not exactly to your liking, a big plus for personalizing entries and if you know of a mnemonic not in the app you can enter your own. The negatives, cant save your modified or personal entries. And this app has the irritating habit of occasionally opening up with nothing but a blank WHITE screen easily fixed by closing the app, going to the desk top and opening it from there. Minor in my mind and Im quite glad to have the app and not have to enter ever single app I find on the internet.

AbfiaspVersion: 17
Great app

Wonderful app, easy to remember when in clinical and on exams.

Danc676Version: 20
Love It, Use It All The Time

My only complaint is that if I add my own mnemonic, it isn't applied across devices and so I have to enter my personal mnemonics twice and sometimes on different days in different locations depending if I have my iPad with me or not. I have trouble formatting my mnemonics, though, I don't know if that is just me.

BeeHivey33Version: 17
This is a great app; a few suggestions

Great app!! I loooooove being able to filter the different subjects as well as subfilter organ system. However, a few tips: would like to see being able to star mnemonics from the mnemonic page, not just in the list view. Also, but perhaps more complicated, to bold letters in mnemonic submissions from iPhone. All in all a highly recommended purchase! You won't regret it.

Avoided it for a long time but wish I had got it sooner

I avoided it for a really long time because I did not want to support an app that was essentially a primitive looking database of mnemonics. Boy was I wrong! Sure, it doesn't look great but gets the job done! I wish I has got it earlier..

Vnstr7Version: 0
Wow

I wish I'd found this before I graduated PA school. Our profs weren't big on pneumonics so we had to make up our own. This would have been perfect. I'll use it now to refresh my memory on things I don't see often and to study for my recert.

KmcoltonVersion: 0
Wonderful Idea and very well executed!

As a medical student, I seem to be faced with so much information that needs to be compartmentalized. Hopefully this will become a huge database, because I will be using this for a long time. Highly recommend!

CadmirVersion: 16
Phenomenal

I'm a medicine intern and find myself pulling this app up regularly... as often to find out what all the letters of a mnemonic I almost-remember stand for as to find new ones. I've submitted a couple of my own, too :)

Very Useful

This is very useful for not only Medical student or doctors, but also for NP student. It is a creative way to memorize important topics. It worth more than the price you pay. I love it. I can reveiw topics whenever I have a spare time in this way.

Cranial Nerve Mnenomic

I am a retired neuro-trauma nurse and I loved this. I am sure it will help many young med and nursing students and is so much more entertaining than On Old Olympics Towering Tops, which never made sense anyway. Plus I have a great friend namedVic so it also makes me giggle!

Great.,, only one small suggestion

This app is wonderful! If I could suggest one thing is being able to create folders for favorites. This app would be perfect if I could organize mnemonics according to my exams, etc. This addition would give it 5 stars!!

Search feature is golden

The search feature makes this app a great tool in finding quick facts for class and many medical topics.

Great resource

I was never a mnemonic person, but when that one thing you can't quite remember comes along, chances are there is a mnemonic to help you remember it. Good App that I recommend

It is good bit not excellent

I would say that if they have more explanation and more mnemonics this app will be amazing! Hopefully next version will have more stuff for medical students not only nurses. Good idea though.

Med Mnemonics Negative Reviews and Ratings

Great app for the price, has real potential to become MUCH better (are you listening dev?)

You are luckier than me, it's @ present being offered for 99c which is a steal IMHO after using the app for a week or so now. Now, if you're an aspiring med student or beginning school you may not realise it yet but mnemonics are not an 'optional' or 'alternative' style of retaining the medical knowledge you learn. With the vast amount of knowledge you will be taking in during your entire medical career, there are bound to be a few things that won't stick over time for personal reasons or maybe the knowledge just doesn't lend itself to applied thought..whatever the cause you can use this app to make sure it sticks. Pros: I feel the app has a good variety of mnemonics (as I've seen plenty online and there were some new ones here),easy accessibility to them, and fast personal entry to store one's own. Here are the Cons that are Potential winners if the developer can get these in an updated revision: 1) Allow for a central server where a personal menomic can be shared (make sharing a personal option of end-user) and rated by entire app owning community in real-time. I know this must be hard as it will have to be slotted in category etc etc but waiting for an update is too long a wait. If not this -then at least a web site where we can see users who put in mnemonics so we can do the ol' copy/paste method. I think rating is a MUST & will be an important and efficient way to separate the cream from the milk 2) Create in-app links( and option to enter site addresses within the app) to sites that host Medical menmonics there are tons of great sites where we can acquire more mnemonics to add to collection 3)Possibly a separate tips addition page in the app so noobs&experienced alike can get good, fresh ideas on how to create more efficient mnemonics. If anyone is new to this..which I doubt..here's a few practical tips in creating your own mnemonics: The more bizarre a mnemonic, the easier to remember, try to make it a colorful, wacky story, feel free to use all sorts of personal interests, innuendos and apply in creating your own mnemonic. Try to link each item to another with distinct connections (again crazier-better). Use vivid imagery. As a last option you can also use acronyms that expand causes ie HEART -various heart diseases but try and make them relevant..but remember Crazy vivid story beats logical acronym any day... Hope you get the idea..

Worth it despite some issues

This has been a great program for me and I would recommend it to any med student who learns via mnemonics. There are a couple of issues that have arisen with my program. First, I have lost the ability to search within my favorites but I still can overall. Second, there ought to be the ability to bold and italicize.

InfophileVersion: 0
Good but can be better

Good App but needs an improvement. There should be a search option specific to the region of the body, ex upper limb or head and neck. The other thing which would be helpful is to have a main server sync. So if someone decides to add a mnemonic they would sync to the server eveentually and upload their new mnemonic which would thereafter shared with others.
