I am a Math Wiz in my School years! What happened to me now?

During high school years, most of my exams are perfect. I can solved problems instant. My classmates want to sit near me to copy my answers. But now, I hardly solved problems in some of Math questions. I even use my fingers to do counting which I don't do before. Can anyone tell me why?

Don't be tensed about it.. Think over it again where you are lacking behind, cover them... And surely you will be more efficient them before.

Only you can investigate why. I think, it's age. Or lack of practice or brain exercise and leave it to tech or gadgets to do the thinking for us. I'm sure you are good at English or/and sciences other than Maths. :-)

We tend to become very forgetful as we grow older. Maybe that's the reason why.

Practice is everything. Lacking here will make you forget for anything. Calculation is basic need in our life. So always go to grocery store, purchase necessary groceries and do calculations on your own without calculator. I hope calculation gets better for you in this way.

Well, if you do not use it that often then it will die down so you have to practice a bit. for sure, it is just there.

Blame technology. Why use your brain when your fingers can do the walking on a CP or laptop keypad?

You may have let your math skills slide if you didn't use it much after graduation. Practice makes perfect.
