ok hears how it goes. i guess you could say it only works for specific things. Like for example i can scan through movies, literally scan and tell you if a movie is there later on, where it is, whos in it. ya da ya da ya da. when i study it will take a few minutes, ill write it down a few times but when i go to take the test or whatever i see what i studied how its layed out originally. like if its in a book ill see it like its the book. is that photographic or just a good memory?

I was wondering if I had a photographic memory because in English class I was read through 16 vocab words and their definitions and could repeat the definitions word for word for almost every one. But I can’t glance at a page in the dictionary and recite every word and definition. Also I saw some things online on how to get a photographic memory, is that actually possible?

is it possible To get photographic memory??
if so how
or are you just born with it?

If so how?
Also if two people that have photographic memory have a child,does that mean the child has a higher chance of getting photographic memory?

I just took a test in my school…an IQ test…and one of the parts was memorizing stuff…I found that I had a really hard time doing this so I’m just wondering if there’s any way to develop a photographic memory or to just get a really good memory…

My dad is always telling me I have a photographic memory whenever I recall stuff from when i was little… What does that mean exactly?

Do you have any good ways or ideas on it? I really want to train myself to have a photographic memory.

K. so if you have a photographic memory then you know how hard it is to keep from getting the headache right after the mental image. Is there anyway to avoid this completly?

I’ve met alot of people who ace there test and can remember everything Crystal clear because they have a photographic memory.
I always wanted that is there a way I could develope it?
If so how…

I understand what it is, and I realize the main way that it works, but if anyone on here DOES have a photographic memory, or knows someone who does, can you explain it to me?

Like, do you have to read a page, and then you just remember it, or can you just simply glance at it and remember absolutely everything.

Does this make it easy for school because you don’t need to study?
You can just be like "Hmm, I saw that on this page…" and then know what you need to know for a test or something?

Any info would be great.
