Indeed. As a high school and college student, I was very good at "hacking" multiple choice tests. I did manage to crush my SATs (800's in the achievement tests), win local and state chemistry competitions, and came in second on the national college level math test (whose name I forgot, but it gets you an entry into the Actuary Guild.)
I remember these, but I am actually most proud of being one of the top 100 scorers on the Putnam competition, definitely not a hackable test!
Sadly, I didn't know Microsoft hired top Putnam scorers, no questions asked, at the time (1970), so I missed out on being a Word programmer. Oh, wait! That's a good thing!
