Suggestions for medical term

I am currently in my first semester at bryant and stratton in New York. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how to memorize the medical terminology. I have my first test coming up on this and I am feeling very overwhelmed with the terminology.

We used flash cards we created from 3x5 cards. We gathered to quiz each other. I also drove my family nuts asking them to quiz me.

There is set available on the internet... I'm not sure how good they are.

where in Ny? The book came with flashcards already for me last semester. I just kept on going over them, also try to relate things to the terms to help you remember.
