My memory is bad, I have very little energy to do stuff past the base requirements, and I have wild amounts of ADHD that mean Ijust straight up do not do anything I am not strictly required to

I can learn stuff, and then I know subconsciously, but like I end up knowing the answers to questions but I couldnt tell you how I got the answer. its like I was possessed when I did the exam
God that must suck, is it like you feel the need to do a ton of stuff at once, and you end up doing nothing?

Iām specifically good at looking at a problem on an exam I donāt know how to do, and then by any means necessary squeezing the maximum number of points out of that problem

It feels a lot like that, but happens even if thereās only one thing to do. You know when you put off a task for a while and you slowly start to go āoh itās difficult, itās so much effort to do, I canāt just start it nowā and you like talk it up in your head & never do the thing because it feels insurmountable. And then eventually when you finally force yourself to do it itās like, easy

Oh I see, idk I hate only doing one thing at a time, I feel like im wasting away when I do that. Its why I end up usually doing 3-4 things at once at any given moment
I also have this but itās just that I genuinely feel terribly bored doing only one thing at once

I play like chess and have a convo with x and fill out some random bs form and do some work all at once
Iām good at like. Searching for little bits and pieces of lectures or notes I remember, deriving or approximating formulas from first principles, on multiple-choice exams narrowing answers down and figuring out which are plausible. If Iām unsure about a problem Iāll do it in as many different ways as I can and cross-reference the answers. Or approximate it using like, really messy techniques, and try to find a formula that feels roughly like what I remember while still coming close to the approximation. May techniques

and its just like normal to me, but anyone looking at me thinks im like 3 people in one body with how many different things im doing at the same time.
One of my favourites is conversation + conversation. Iāll go to the dorm common room to like. Be around human beings because thatās good for me. And then a mahjong game night will start and I donāt wanna miss mahjong. So I go on Discord push-to-talk, put an earbud in one ear, and then talk to two sets of people at once

Oh I do this to, I cannot remember formulas well, so I end up deriving them during exams
This is impressive ngl. I cant talk with somebody irl and do other stuff to, that is like the 1 place where it breaks down for me

I canāt 100% keep up with all the words in both conversations, but thatās true of any given conversation, given Iām always multitasking in there anyway. I can do it well enough to like, give responses to either

iām a big fan of hard multiple choice math tests. because it allows me to forget how to do things while still deriving the right answer from other nonsense (note that only standardized-ish tests are like this)
