Quicker than quick, that's what they say,
Add an E and thirds go away,
Lose my first and a test comes to play,

Good luck!
Hint:
Keep me the same, you'll be hungry a day.

You are
FAST
Quicker than quick, that's what they say
Fast is a synonym of quick, perhaps even very quick
Add an E and thirds go away
Feast: Not sure entirely, but perhaps during a feast you don't follow the rule of thirds?
Lose my first and a test comes to play
AST scrambled = SAT
Hint:
If you fast, you don't eat and will be hungry!

$\begingroup$ For the "Add an E and thirds go away" clue, if you add an E, you get "feast", and taking away the third letter gives you "fat". Good job! $\endgroup$ May 8 at 15:01

Are you a
RACE
Quicker than quick, that's what they say,
The quicker than quick will win the race.
Add an E and thirds go away,
I see a little play here. Add an E and Third S - Go away
Add an ERACE, Put third letter as S - Gives ERASE i.e. Go away
Lose my first and a test comes to play,
ACE test
