What are your hints/tips for memorizing lists?

I have to know brand/generic/usage for the top 200 drugs prescribed in the US.

I have a few mental images I make for remembering, and a few involve my Fluther friends. (Example: zoloft = certainly lofty symbeline = sertraline)

Mods, please don’t delete that. Sym knows about my example

What do you do to remember a lot of information? Sing it? Make a mental picture?

Tips and tricks and walkthroughs welcome.
