Default Am I a fast, slow or average learner?
 
I have been revising German all day and it's now getting quite painful and tedious

However, I need some feedback to whether I am a fast or average learner. For instance, an A4 page contains 40 German verbs and their English equivalents and I sit down and read them for 2 minutes, without taking notes. After reading all 40 verbs I can then recite around 35ish from memory including their English equivalents. My friend tested me on this and is shocked because she can only remember around 10ish.

So am I a fast/slow or average learner

Do you really need to be told. You just answered your own question.

Who knows.
You're learning 'speed' isn't just based around German verbs. It may be different for other things.
You tell us

Depends how fast/slow a learner your friend is who you are comparing yourself against!

If she's a complete idiot who can't learn anything of substance in less than a week, you might not be a fast learner at all; but assuming she's average - you learn things pretty quickly.
