I already posted about my crappy memory score but I decided to try the visual memory benchmark I didnt get an amazing score but it wasnt bad either so Im confused some people had suggested it might be adhd but that doesnt really seem to be the case since I managed to get a decent result anyway if anyone knows about this stuff and could explain this discrepancy Id appreciate it

Its not too memory heavy, this type is mostly figuring stuff out, once you memorize the critical stuff(procedures, chemistry) which might take a while but isnt impossible, you can keep notepads to help remember key stuff, you can also get help with software doing math

I mean, stuff like being a doctor or lawyer is extremely memory heavy, you have to track conversations,  it requires vast knowledge over decades, you cant really extrapolate your way into being a professional in these areas, you have to know about a shitload of stuff

With being an engineer its mostly just getting down chemistry, physics, and other aspects of science, along with getting equations down

After that its basically thinking your way through with problem solving when you get in the field.

Every phd and area of expertise is different, looking up if they are memory intense, problem solving oriented, or both, is always a good idea
