Analogy strategy

I don't think this topic is on the front page, if it is I am sorry for making a double topic post. Anyways, I am trying to memorize as many words as I can from the Barron's and other resource lists. Although, I am pretty sure somewhere along the line I won't know a word(s) and was wondering if anyone had any good strategies?

I've tried the making a sentence and sounding it out strategy, and they just don't work for me. Although maybe I am doing them wrong

I think I just need to expand my vocabulary. I got all the strategies above down, but they all fail when I do not know the words

I guess the great memorization is on heh heh
