"Wow this person must be a great test taker!", or "Wow this person must be really smart!"

False dichotomy. I think "Wow, this person is probably lying since the people that score a 2400 on the SAT in one sitting is something like a few hundred a year and if they're not lying, they probably studied a whole lot."

That being said, I think a combination of intelligence and hard work are needed to perform well on the SAT or ACT.
