With me, this sort of memory is very strong. I don't often remember things verbatim after reading them, but I can recall them because of remembering where I read them, or what search terms I used to find them.
When I was in school, I have sometimes answered an exam question like this:
- History: "Not enough time to explain. See Textbook, Page 175, three quarters down the page."
- Math: "Not enough time to complete calculation. Use formula <formula here> and technique described on page 241."
Sometimes a teacher reacted like: "You serious mate? This gets you nothing." Others said: "Hm... obviously you knew what needed to be done. Let's award some of the points."
Better than just leaving the question blank and be sure to get nothing.
