Seems an easy one, and I know what it is, but having trouble finding the correct term. I find 'study well' but I'm not too confident about that.

test well
Given the minimal context, this is what I would call it. It means the same thing as study well or well being studied, but is a much more common term. I don't know what kind of tests are being done, but you should be able to tell from the context of your report if this is appropriate.
