I think it’s because while her memory makes it possible to remember events from her life in great detail, it’s also very distracting. She mentioned in the text that her condition, despite what people might think, didn’t help her in any way in school and actually made it more difficult. She has great memory for things that happened to her specifically, but the amount of things she remembers might have made it more difficult to focus on school related informations like mathematical formulas for example.
