Yes. "Weak detail recall but strong fluid reasoning, conceptual/gist memory, and adaptive problem-solving" is how GPT sums up what I feel. And "high fluid intelligence" is a label it gave that I won't be using anytime soon... But I like the sound of it.
You might benefit from (proper, not the multiple choice kind) aptitude testing.
What are the benefits? What would/could I do with the results?
Most people come in for educational or career guidance, but I think it's best used as a way of understanding how your mind works, especially in relation to others'. The on-the-flying reasoning isn't pitted against good memory (there also isn't a single "memory", but we have different strengths for remembering words, stories, ideas, shapes, faces, numbers, melodies, and rhythms), but against a more methodical and well-prepared presenter. The on-the-fly reasoners are also quicker to see patterns and make connections among disparate data. It's great for trial law, but not so great (or distracting at best) for tax law, where you can't just wing it.

You asked an LLM to reason about you, for you, and it said you’re an adroit reasoner? It must have context we lack!
