Working memory is short term, though.
I feel like I have deficits in both working and long term memory. For example, if you gave me a math formula and told me to hold it in memory long enough to use it on an exam a minute later I'd probably not be able to remember it.

Also, I don't think it's uncommon to not grasp everything you're learning unless you're a genius. High school is a lot easier and the material doesn't challenge you as much. Don't be hard on yourself.
Thanks.
