Two probable reasons for that:

1- The tests assume a logical/standard opponent. Sometimes at microstakes in particular, thats just not what you get. That said you're normally best to assume your opps are at least somewhat logical.

2- You're taking more time to think about it in the tests, but rushing too much at the table. Run down time if you need to think things through.
