Yeah, that is the way that Evey drew it in class. Other sources (the nerve handout) suggest that the zygomatic branches comes off after the maxillary enters the inferior orbital foramen. Food for thought.

For #62, I'm pretty sure that is false. The parasympathetic GVE fibers coming from the pterygopalatine ganglion go along the zygomatic nerve, then zygomaticotemporal, then lacrimal. I'm pretty sure that we're still talking about the maxillary nerve when it gives off the zygomatic nerve, and we only get the infraorbital nerve after it has gone through the inferior orbital fissure.
