Run through them in your head making motions with stand in props if needs be.
When I was obsessing about my OSCEs in second year, I just ran through the steps of scenarios using bags, bits and pieces and pillows because I couldn't be arsed going into uni most of the time. Sounds strange but it worked well enough for me.
Also when it comes to wrote learning lists and so forth, I came across a "fact" in psychology class in high school that helps me to this day. I read that for information to make the jump from short to long term memory, you need to say/think/hear it 20 times. Obviously its a gross over simplification, but I actually use this idea to wrote learn a lot of things.
1. I literally sit and stare at the list and say it over and over again, until I can close my eyes and go through it without looking at the list (maybe a few times, depending of course on how long the list is. Your short term memory can easily hold about 4-7 things [again an oversimplification, I know]).
2. I then consider this to mean I have committed the list to my short term memory. Once I've done this, I repeat the list 20 times from memory.
3. Then study something else and return later to try and list it from memory. If you can't, repeat the whole process.
If the list is longer than about 10 things long, I learn it in parts.
No guarantees, just some food for thought. Works well for me and I hate wrote learning.
