My score was 43 but I took this test many years ago and it was 40 so I don't know what that says except maybe I'm less understanding of other people than I used to be which is almost zilch to begin with.

I got 29, while it says you need to get a score above 32 to have Asperger's Syndrome. Maybe I just have a mild form, enough to pass for NT is some situations.

I answered as honestly as possible and got a score of 30. If I answered the questions from when I was 12 or so I would probably be in the 45+ range though. I've changed a lot.

Isn't this test the Baron-Cohen AQ test? It's supposed to be very accurate.

43. I seem to be pretty consistent- but then I've only begn taking the "tests" in the last 12 months. I can't imagine much has changed.

"You scored 44. " - I am self-diagnosed. Too complicated for me to get a professional diagnosis at my age (48) and living in a foreign country, especially because I'm not fluent yet with that country's language.

Some of these questions, I don't even know what they're asking. Like number two. I didn't know how to answer that. What do they mean? Take the same route to work/class? DOes 23 (I notice patterns in things all the time) refer to visual patterns or patterns like a conspiracy/theme? A little mouseover or question mark icon for "explain this, damn it!" would have been nice. FOr the routines one, I put slightly disagree because ruts make me suicidal.

Some can be taken different ways, like 10 (its because I don't care, not because I'm not paying attention) or 5 (not because I'm observant, but because I have hyperacusis) and 13, preferring to go to a library than a party? Well... if there's an open bar...

Quite vague, shouldn't be taken as a diagnostic end all be all. See a neuropsychologist.

I got 29. Diagnosed. IF they would have actually had questions on sensory integration, mine would have been higher.

An eye test section would have made it higher still. :wink:

I really didn't know how to answer a good amount of the questions, not only cause they were kind of vague but also cause I never really thought about those things before. Anyway, I initially scored 9, then changed a few things around that I wasn't so sure about and got up to 15. I really don't take it to mean a whole lot of anything though :?

I'd like to see a really good test like arm or leg wrestling with some college professor or some brain surgeon or a contest of lethal darts with some eggheads in a pub.
Mud wrestling with some Aspie women against a hord of NT research writers would be the s**ts.
Where is Jerry Springer when we need him.
