I've been hearing it for 40 years. Didn't know it wasn't an entry. I'd skip the 大変 version.

[commentary on an image] "Right: Here’s your gold star if you knew that reads “Taihen yoku 
dekimashita” (“You did well”), and is basically a stamp of approval."
  Comments:
I've barely set my foot in a Japanese school, but I've still quite familiar with this (from TV etc., I
