Hi Ann,

No you couldn't say 'Je ne m'en souviens pas beaucoup' here.

You might use it talking of a specific person or experience ....

Then is "Je ne me souviens pas beaucoup" correct?

Hi Joan, 

As I replied to Ann, not in that context...

je ne me souviens pas de grand-chose vs je n'en souviens pas beaucoup. Are they both correct?
