Well, it's problematic to me. I can ace any test on written paper, but my social anxiety is configured in such a way that I become a blubbering idiot if someone is looking at the back of my head.
My ability to do really well on written tests actually got me into Stanford, despite coming from a pretty normal middle class background -- my dad worked for suburban city government. If I had majored in CS instead of science, I would be a shoe in, but alas I didn't.
If they could just do the tests slightly differently I could ace them. Instead, I'm mainly just avoiding the FAANG world. If I spent another 80 hours practicing them I might have a shot, but eh...
