It’s currently university exam season in my country. My roommate has quite literally not come to university at all the entire semester except for mandatory stuff; hasn’t studied at all, doesn’t even have the coursework, 0 notebooks or folders, etc. We’re more than half done with the exam session and he got 10/10 (max grade) at each exam. He just read through my coursework the day before the exam for a bit & that was it. When I ask him he says he uses intuition, logic and reading between the lines to understand the “patterns”. I just don’t understand how you can use “intuition” for microeconomics & math applied in economics for example. I know for a fact he doesn’t cheat cause in his mind cheating is too much effort.
Same deal here, but with a strange twist in my case. I have absolutely terrible short term memory, stuff barely commits to long term, but if it does I can remember it exactly as if I’d just seen it. Makes it very hard to explain why I know the exact position of a USB cable I put away 2 years ago but still can’t reliably find where I set my keys
