“On Old Olympus’s Towering Top A Finn And German Viewed Some Hops” @<ref>Swansburg, Russell C (1995). Nursing Staff Development, Jones and Bartlett Publishers. ISBN 0-86720-658-6., p. 88: “An example of this is the mnemonic used by most nursing students to remember the cranial nerves: On Old Olympus’ Towering Top a Finn and German Viewed Some Hops.”</ref>:(The letters stand for Olfactory nerve, Optic nerve, Occulomotor nerve, Trochlear nerve, Trigeminal nerve, Abducent nerve, Facial nerve, Auditory nerve, Glossopharyngeal nerve, Vagus nerve, Spinal Accessory nerve, and Hypoglossal nerve.) Older medical professionals tend to remember the variant, “On Old Olympus’ Towering Top a Fat-Assed German Viewed Some Hops”. This variant is less politically correct, but may therefore be more memorable.
