*Did you cry over the sad death of Steve Jobs?
No. He never meant much to me, but I was slightly shocked when he died. If figured if he had cancer he would become bound to a death bed first, instead of suddenly just dying. |

| Sounds to me like you're more "Gifted" than a "Savant": I think a Savant is usually just one subject. (Actually, with the chemistry I'd say you're a miracle, if you get 100% and never study: did you just read through the text, or maybe sleep with your head on it like a pillow, like Edgar Cayce?)

| Capable and candid, you're the one to say what everybody else is afraid to admit. You have the charisma of a great leader. You are willing to stand alone, but others are eager to join you. Too intense for some, often times people are intimidated by you. You are fierce. If you're in a bad mood, the e... |

| Being Autistic sucks, no one around you understand you, and people either think your a sociopath or ret*d at first glance. Being called robotic does not feel good, it suggests we are subhuman and we don't like being treated subhuman. |

| What exactly makes someone a savant? I'm very intelligent, but I don't think I'm quite a savant. I'm pretty sure I scored the highest on the MAP tests in ever category, at least with everyone I've talked I scored significantly higher than them, except for one person who I tied with in Literary Analy... |

I get up at five on most school days, then brush my teeth, put on deodorant, and pee after I manage to drag myself out of bed, then after that I get dressed, then I go down stairs and make myself breakfast, which i... |

| People are usually immediated by my intelligence until the know me for a while, and then I guess they either see that I wouldn't ever intenitonally use it to hurt them, that I'm not some sort of alien and that I have my own flaws and human nature, or something. I dunno. |

I think aspies get better as they age, but a few things may make them appear worse.
1. More responsibilities being piled on at older ages that may just be too much
2. They may careless as they get older |
