Medical problem?

He's right of course. At 15, it's probably changing hormonal balance (this written by a guy who's raised 2 boys through teen years). Hair is sprouting where you had none before, and your mind keeps thinking about females, no matter how hard you try not to. Nothing else is quite as important (certainly not academic subjects), so nothing else gets noted and remembered.

It'll pass - or, rather, you'll get used to it and regain/re-learn how to concentrate and remember things.

However, even if what I wrote is true, you should check with a doc as soon as possible, to make sure there isn't some underlying problem. If you're too embarrassed to ask your folks for that: join a sports team; they usually require a physical exam to make sure you're fit for the sport, then mention your memory problem to the examiner.

Whatever you do: don't put it off, thinking it will go away. The peace of mind alone, of knowing you're OK will do you good.

First off, Kukri is prolly right: growing up, hormonal imbalances, your body needs a lot more minerals, vitamins, and pretty much everything - more than at probably any other period of your life.

You can try some (multi)vitamins; also, lecythin is supposed to help with memory quite a bit, and you can find lecythin pills.
I used to take some myself when I was younger. I can't remember if they helped, though.

It could be an age problem, I'm 16 and the same thing happens to me. Sometimes I can't even remember if something that happened was in a dream or it it was real.
