A level Mathmatics A grade, followed by a 1st Class Law degree, and I got it on the 5th go. It is not about how smart you are, it is about logical thinking. People who work for consultancy firms and the like would be able to sort it out almost instantly because their prerogative is to find the simplest solution to the problem at hand logically. The more experience at maths you have, particularly in statistics, the more likely that you will seek to find a theoretical, not logical, conclusion to the problem, and for that reason it would take that person longer. The classification of the statement shouldn't be about how smart you are, but how qualified you are.
