If so what did get?
I got 25 which is strange because according to this quiz I dont have aspergers. Im guessing its not the most realiable quiz so dont take your scores too seriously :tongue:

The test doesn't diagnose you, either positively ("you have AS") or negatively ("you don't have AS"). It simply gives your diagnostician extra information when making a decision. A score below 32 does not mean "you don't have AS", it just means "you are less likely to have AS"). About 20% of diagnosed people score below 32. So "less likely" means there are exceptions - people who do score below 32 and who do have AS. Perhaps you are one of those exceptions. What do other tests say?

I would add that a score below 32 could mean that you are good at masking your AS, good at "faking" NT. There is a lot of pressure on mild Aspies - especially when you have no idea that you are an Aspie - to conform to the attitudes of the NT world. This masking comes at a cost to the Aspie, however: http://www.aspiestrategy.com/2012/05/hidden-autistics-aspergers-in-adults.html.

haha just got 39 I have no idea of the validity, buy assume it must have some diagnostically due to the baron-cohen connection. So I guess I have a bit of an idea about the validity lol...

Just took it again and got 43. I consistently get scores in the low 40's on this test.

I got a 42. Does this mean I have a AQ score of 42?

I haven't taken that test on that particular website but I've taken the same set of questions on many other websites.

I got a 33. Indicating AS or high functioning autism.

45 here, same score as last time I took it. I think my high score is as much to do with the fact that I think in pretty black and white terms as with me sucking at being empathic.

High 30s. I got a 36 on the day of my diagnosis evaluation but my self-judgement varies so I get 38 sometimes
