41

Interestingly a perfectly "normal" friend of mine who took the test scored 30.
He has a partner, two young daughters, a happy social life, is good in conversation, and has lots of friends.

I've taken this test a few times for a bit of a lark, and my scores are a bit of a mix. The highest was 40, lowest was 33.

Did the test twice.

As an 8 year old: 44
Now: 23

This misdiagnosis caused me significant stress, which lessened upon finding out the truth about myself from my current and past long-term therapists - that I am an anxious and highly sensitive person but do not have an autism spectrum disorder.

My diagnoses - social anxiety disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder.

I’m no longer involved with the ASD world.

I took the test a few months ago and I think it was either 37 or 39. I can't remember.

I took it again and scored 43.

I took the AQ test a while ago, and got a 37. Is that low?

37 out of 50 is not low. The average aspie score is 32.

I had a mean of 40 one or two years ago.

I suspected as much, but it turns out I get a much higher score with ADHD meds.
