Hey, anyone of you ever experienced this? This especially happens when you have an information overload and suddenly everything disappears... (for me) How about you guys? has it ever happened to you?

Yes it happened to me before...during maths, which is one of the worst subjects to forget every formula on. Studied for hours the day before, and than it all went away in a few seconds. Fortunately my other exams were still okay, so I was able to get through that year^^ But still once in my life honestly, seeing papers, knowing that u knew all those things, and still having no possible solution to the question... I actually just cleared my head, waited about 15 minutes, and tried again. Even though it didn't go much better after that^^ Well, so be it^^ All the best Kat.

yea, this usually happens when u have an information overload and your head just crashes. and u get nothing left. it is then that you have only one choice, skip that question. i just did my history paper a week before today and everything seemed to go well. the trick is to revise (obvious huh). but when i say revise i dont mean last minute revision. only pro's can do that; yea i always do that :P but it sometimes fails me and gets me eve more frustrated as you know you revised it but you CANT REMEMBER. anyway, at least i know im not th only one :D
