You have to keep in mind the socioeconomic levels of the people surveyed. Lower class people typically eat more junk food because they can't afford healthier food, and they don't usually go to the best schools, so of course they aren't going to do as well on tests. I'm not saying junk food is good for you, I'm just saying there could be other reasons for the results. This vendetta against junk food is starting to go too far. I recently read a book called Junk by Christopher Largen in which all junk food was banned--in fact, it had the same stigma as drugs do today. Doesn't sound too far off from what's starting to happen now. Bottom line: everything is okay in moderation. Is this study really accurate?
