If you tell me to do X, I will do an excellent job of X and it will be easy. Same if you tell me to do Y. But if I have to do both X and Y, with shifting priorities, I find it really exhausting to switch focus and I do a really crappy job. I do really well when I can focus on one thing and don't have to depend on other people to accomplish my goal. Telling me to split my focus 3 ways just makes my stress and anxiety levels soar. Is this an AS trait? Or is it just me?

It's just a matter of organization and being able to prioritize.

Thanks. That was helpful. I took the test but I'm not entirely sure what the scores mean, other than I suck at task shifting.
