It's similar with the ASVAB (multisection test for determing qualification for military service). I scored the highest score available, a 99, because it seemed in each section they moved on once they established competence.
The few people who saw my score (I don't go around telling people) have asked if I was super smart or something (the recruiter called me "professor" and asked if I had a Masters), and I said no, I am just competent at anything I could do in the military. I'm honestly not excellent at any particular thing, and in any given task I'm unlikely to be the best one there for it. But I'm capable of doing any task adequately. As my old trombone instructor used to say, I'm a "jack of all trades, master of none."
But the test doesn't care if you're amazing at anything. It just wants to see if you're capable of doing anything.
looky here we got us a man who earned a 99 in cleaning out the shithouse. Grab a shovel, "Professor".
I mean, yeah, I can very competently clean out a shithouse as well as I can competently fix a helicopter. I probably won't be exceptional at either one (though I absolutely kill it on written tests, I guess).
