Perhaps all, perhaps none. Tests (e.g. in school) are supposed to filter people. So a good test score in a well-designed test "correlates strongly with the human students' future performance" or perhaps "correlates strongly with the amount of work they tend to put in preparing". That's almost completely orthogonal to the test being about or requiring relevant skills to pass.
To illustrate this, very great chess players tend to be reasonably smart (e.g. you might expect them to be able to adapt and learn how to decently run a company). An AI that can wipe the floor with them can do no such thing.
Maybe this fundamental difference will go away with "general" AI and we may then judge it using human tests, but that's not a given.
