I can learn a lot in a short time, have a good short term memory and also a good long term memory. I guess because short term memory is only for minutes to a few hours but i can memorize things for a few days weeks. After that i can only remember the concept of what i ve learned not the details and names.

But i have a high iq and everywhere i read that people with an high iq have a very good long term memory and they don't forget details and names.
