Reminds me of the Dunning-Kruger effect:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning-Kruger_effect

"Across four studies, the authors found that participants scoring in the bottom quartile on tests of humor, grammar, and logic grossly overestimated their test performance and ability. Although test scores put them in the 12th percentile, they estimated themselves to be in the 62nd."
