This is far too early and I wish to see more conclusive results, but this might provide information as to why some really bright people don't fare well until they're at a university or in graduate school/the industry. Perhaps employers could use this information: e.g. if a candidate fits a certain pattern, they could structure the interview process to be less stressful (to avoid situations where they may be passing up on some of the brighest people). That could be also why really smart hackers tend to flock to startups, R&D/"platform" teams (as opposed to product development/customer facing teams) and graduate schools: ability to set your own schedule, greater say in setting the overall technical direction and timing/deadlines.
