Anyone else forget the crap they learned in previous courses?

Like, lets say you take a calculus course or a accounting course, does anyone else forget most of the shit they learned several months afterwards?

Does this mean low iq?

If you dont use your skills then you tend to forget them. I'd suggest practice until it becomes second nature

I suffer the same fate, usually. I had a syntax course in late 2019, which I did pass but if I had to retake that particular test right now, I'd fail because I've forgotten about all of the rules jfl

Doesn't mean low IQ. And yes it's normal.

who tf practices calculus out of nowhere lol? Its over if your low iqcel which I think equates to bad memory.

Same bro, Imagine being a med student though and having to remember all that shit. I would rope ngl, no wonder the average iq of a med student is like 130, and they literally dedicate their lives to practicing the same shit over and over to retain it. Must be a stressful existance.

Looks and High IQ is everything tbh.

I'm too lazy to remember anything post-course/test/assignment most of the time tbh. I have a 'get it over the line and once it's done, it's done' type of mentality.
I would probably benefit if I'd remember some things more vividly but as you mentioned, having to recall/practice the same shit over and over again (in addition to consistently learning new things as well) would be pretty stressful indeed.

Nigga yes, all the time, but only in subjects that don't interest me.

You forget it because the brain forgets useless shit. Useless shit is all you learn at university. So your brain cleanses itself. Be proud of your properly functioning brain.

I don't remember anything I studied. school and college are a waste of time.

Could be low IQ or high IQ. You may forget for no reason at, indicating lower intelligence, or at least memory. On the other hand, if your brain chose to forget it to store newer, more important information that you've learned. Also, IQ is very general, you may have very high problem solving abilities with a bad memory.

The degree is not for the knowledge, it's basically just so you qualify on paper for a particular job, the rest is social circle maxxing, luck, and looks halo.

you can go to med school with average IQ
