She's a fifteen years old weapon nerd who prefers sleeping and fooling around during class, until Weiss disciplined her. Moreover, she's mostly a loner during Signal since she much prefers Crescent Rose as her true friend. So I simply don't see her as an academic pre-Beacon, and if not for her amazing combat and weapons handling talent, and if she was at a normal school, she could have been a dropout, period.

Plus, it's entirely possible that she knew what magnetism was, but not polarity, since the word is rarely used in normal conversations. It's just a case of 'Ooh! A new word I didn't know!' really. Even at my age I'm still constantly surprised (and shamed) at how much words I do not know, and hence could not use in my composed stories.
