There's a difference between being able to recall information and being able to fit information into a broader picture, for example. Either IQ tests do or don't take this into account, I don't know, but I feel there aught to be several types of measurements to clarify the type of learning capacity a person has. An analogy might be, does a person behave as if their mind is written to a hard drive? An SSD? Directly onto a colossal amount of RAM? All would have their benefits and drawbacks, and having a lot of any of the three would qualify you as being intelligent, I'd think.
Perhaps related, while I'm good at tactical games and shit at strategy games, my friend is the opposite, despite us being of similar intelligence. We clearly "see" puzzles differently, like my mind uses a narrow beam flashlight while my friend's uses a wide beam. It's a shame I don't know any of the terms necessary to even see if there's good data on this shit, because I think it'd be useful to know for the purpose of better educating people that think in a particular way.
