No not at all... you have what many called "performance anxiety" Many people have it!! You just are putting too much stress on yourself and it's causing you to forget. Anxiety makes most people feel stupid!!
Next time take a deep breathe and try to relax... breathe in through your nose and out your mouth. Don't try to rush the answer, take your time and let your mind and body relax!!
you'll find that the answer was always there. It takes a little time and practice but I promise you... it gets easier
good luck ; )

No.. You are in no way stupid... Every human being has that moment when their minds just go blank.... And since you decided not to tell us the other things that you were thinking about many time the human mind on its own prioritizes your thoughts.. And what ever you were being taught at that time may have dropped to the bottom of you list as for things to do or think about... And those are factually situation..... So forget about it and stop worrying about the small stuff.........................

Stop being so down on yourself. If your smart, your smart. Everyone has a "senior moment. :) Now, if you feel there is truly something wrong, maybe try getting a blood test to determine if there is a problem.

Maybe you're just nervous? It's 'tough' to be "put on the spot" like that!
I don't think you're stupid! -If you WERE "naturally stupid" would you even BE asking IF you were...??? -NO, you'd BE too "stupid" to care or notice........! ;)

No. You could be spacing out. Are you getting enough sleep at night?
