just remembering the answers to several of the same questions that are probably being recycled from test to test.
I assumed this is how she did it, but assuming all questions are recycled, 4 options in 40 questions, perfect memory, no knowledge, and a naïve strategy, she should have passed in just 29 tries (1.75 retries per question, 10 initially right, 24 needed). Mastermind isn't that hard a game. So clearly, some assumptions are wrong.
