I wondered the same thing. I do not think that their IQ is necessarily extremely high; I do wonder, however, if their superior autobiographical memory extends to things they have studied or read, which may result in very high test scores.

---

As someone that has a good memory, but not a "superior autobiographical memory," I can say that, yes, it extends to things that have been read and studied and it equates to a higher than average I.Q. I have been told by 'average' people that it is highly unusual for someone to remember their babyhood years or what may have happened even in grammar school. I thought I was just unusual and never spoke of it. Now my curiosity is piqued.
