Likely the studied group was as bad as usual. But it's plausible the pill influences the hormones which influence performance under a test.

That possibility exists. But I contend that the test group wasn't suitable to begin with. I began taking them when I was 14 to control my very eccentric random cycle (17-43 days).

I'd venture that 5 years of MS/HS honor role and 3.9s from two STEM degrees contradicts their findings quite handily.

A high GPA doesn't mean that they're smarter or have better concentration. High GPAs frequently mean that the student has an efficient way of studying or that they already know the material.
