I just did that wired AQ test and I scored 33 - what does that mean? that's quite high, isn't it?
I just answered the questions as honestly as I could - I'm a bit surprised actually - it sounds quite high.
I think that that maybe I will do the test again tomorrow.but I guess I would answer more or less exactly the same though.
The reason I came to this site was because someone mentioned to me that another website that I spend most of my time online at had been unfairly ridiculed by someone here - so I wanted to just set the record straight and make it clear that they were mistaken - and then I started reading and was really impressed by lots of the threads - can someone help me a bit with what this score means in terms of the number because I'm more or less ignorant of how to gauge the results..but I am a but shocked it - somebody else said they scored 17 and I assume the higher the score is predicting a higher chance of exhibiting - I don't even know what really - i just did it out of curiosity.
i guess I should just do some more reading myself but I'm too tired right now.. it's late here. I'm not normal, I know that lol but I didn't expect to get 33 is that borderline something or what?
I have trouble socially and I spend a lot of time alone - I enjoy painting and reading - i'm left handed, I don't know if that means anything..
anyway, enough rambling from me - any feedback would be much appreciated - as said I'm a bit surprised - I took a test a couple of years ago - the result was like a circular chart and it positioned you on it somewhere and I remember it said I was in the spectrum (?) but I didn't remember make efforts to remember it properly and always just considered I was a bit odd compared to people around me but put it down to my experiences..
thanks for any replies I guess *shrugs* that was well strange - I kind of wish I hadn't done the darn thing now - arrove on the site yesterday, do a test today that I read about in a thread and seemingly get quite a high number as a result..
these were the results *shrugs*

The statistics for the test are that 80% of autism spectrum individuals score 32 or above. However it must be stressed that the test is simply a screen and does not equate to a diagnosis of any kind. The advice is that if you score highly and you are experiencing distress as a result of the impact of your aspie traits (eg depression because you don't have any friends) then you should see a someone about it.
Being left handed is related to ASD. I believe left-handedness is the most mild of neurodiversions and statistically more common in people with specific learning difficulty, ADHD, asperger's, autism. Again, it is simply an indicator and not a diagnostic tool. I'm personally right handed but my dad is left-handed/ ambidextrous.
