I read about various online tests people have taken here.
What are the top / best / most popular of these?

Could someone post some links here please?

If you send me a PM that would be great as I tend to lose track of threads. Thanks.

If you click the "Watch this topic for replies" at the bottom of a page or click the "Notify me when a reply is posted" when you are posting, you should normally get an e-mail when there is the first new response after your last logged-in visit to the topic.

I think that there are a couple of issues with this, though. For one thing, if you are logged off when you go to the link in the e-mail, the site won't realize that you visited the page and so you won't get any notices until you go to the page while logged in.

Also, it appears that if your e-mail server is down or disconnected from the network due to a cable being cut or other similar reason, the e-mails don't get through.

It would be nice if there was a place you could click that would reset your monitoring status on all threads that you are expecting replies from so that the next time those threads receive a new post, you will receive a notification e-mail.

There is a sticky in the general forum: http://www.wrongplanet.net/postt113459.html

I put my scores in my signature, I didn't seem to get a numerical result from the EIQ, but at the end it asked for money for the report. It did say this though:

The original Aspie Quiz (Quiz 1) from 2004 is not reliable, and also is no longer working because of updates to PHP on my site. older versions are only retained because I want to archive all older versions. Perhaps I should move them elsewhere so people don't try to do them?

Edit: Moved all older version out of the web-site directory so nobody can do them.

That EIQ test was grueling. I had to keep taking breaks and come back to it.
