Accurate for me,scored 34 points.But I do think it's way to short a list to be of any use if you take it too serious.

I say this is pretty much accurate. :)

I scored 34.

Though this test was not even remotely intensive, as an ADHD, not so quiet Autistic, it was nice to take a test where half the questions are not about how introverted a person is.

29 Autism
14 ADHD

The reason did not score very high is probably mild sensory sensitivities.

29 on the AQ test. I know which questions were more towards NT for me. They were the ones dealing with pretend play as a child.

29 on the Aspie Quiz

Aspie Quiz with the circle graph thingie was 138/200 Aspie score - 95/200 non Autistic score (You are very likely an Aspie)

Short Autism Screening Quiz
You scored a total of 27
Based upon your responses to this autism screening measure, you have symptoms associated with an autism spectrum disorder diagnosis. People who've scored similarly to you on this screening measure will often meet the diagnostic criteria for autism or Asperger syndrome, a milder form of autism.

Results of Your Adult
Attention Deficit Disorder Quiz
You scored a total of 33
Inattention Subscale: 18
Hyperactivity/Impulsivity Subscale: 15
S C O R I N G K E Y
If you scored...
You may have symptoms of...
34 & up Adult ADHD
26 - 33 Moderate ADHD
18 - 25 ADHD possible
12 - 18 ADHD symptoms
0 - 11 No ADHD symptoms
Subscales:
20 & Up - High
13 - 19 - Moderate
0 - 12 - Low
Based upon your responses to this adult ADD/ADHD screening quiz, you have replied in a way similar to people who have symptoms of moderate attention deficit disorder. Some people with scores similar to yours have sought professional treatment for this concern; others have not.
If you were diagnosed with ADHD, it would likely be of the Combined presentation, as you indicated significant symptoms of inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity.
You indicated that several of the symptoms were not present before age 12.
You indicated that the symptoms occur in two or more settings.
For ADD or ADHD to be diagnosed by a mental health professional, usually the symptoms must occur in at least two different settings (like school and home, or work and home), and they must have lasted at least 6 months. Symptoms typically worsen in situations that require sustained attention or mental effort, or that are boring.
