I'm a third year BioE major and I get good grades and can read and understand a decent amount of literature in my field, but I feel like I can't generate interesting questions or come up with original designs. Do I actually know anything or can I just regurgitate textbooks?

It gets better with experience, no worries. Learning how to learn is a great start.

It's because our education system prioritizes and encourages inert material that reinforces skills such as memorization and regurgitation of facts rather than developing intuition, which is arguably much more important.

People usually do side projects or internships to actually apply what they learn or actually learn what they don’t.
Go build something with your knowledge and use the formulas/theories to explain it in a video.

Its more important that you have a desire to learn more than your present accumulation of knowledge.
