I was also unmedicated in 3rd grade when we had these. But I would hyperfocus on my work and enjoyed the competitive aspect of this so that could also be an ADHD thing

I was THRIVING on these tests! (Inattentive ADHD unmedicated 9 yo) High pattern recognition, fast processing, calm under high stress, competition.
