Either lack of proper practise because of overconfidence, or even a mild stress reaction during the exam throws you off

Because you have the time to care about the problems specificity and take in information using your problem solving skills, you will understand it. During an exam you have 1 minute tops per question so you have to basically assume a shit ton or think on the fly. The stupid part of this is that in real life you always have the time to take in what you must do. An engineer isn't gonna be given a dead line of ~1 fucking minute unless he procrastinated. He's gonna get a dead line of at least a couple days. Its probably the reason we are 100 years behind were technology should be, because it kind of fucks up the chances of success for super autistic people who would have better insights into things than your typical normie because they can take the time to see the patterns in shit. Also anxiety and stress gets to you during the exam.

Self-assessment of ability is exceptionally unreliable
Which is why anyone calling themselves self-taught in a field is always either clueless or a complete fraud.

There's a difference between recognizing something, and it actually being something solid in your brain.
For example, pick up an old book or magazine or whatever, something you haven't looked through in over a decade and have forgotten what's inside it. As you open each page you will exclaim
>"Ah I remember this now!"
However, no matter how hard you try, you won't be able to predict the next page, but of course, the moment you turn the page you say
>"Ah I remember this now!"
This is what happens when you revise for an exam improperly, you look at the formulas, the solutions, and you think you understand it, but you are just recognizing it. Once the stimulus is taken away from you, you are unable to recall it.
You have to practice recalling it from memory
