I got my assessment Monday at the autism clinic I'm kinda curious as in my nature what should I expect? Is there more testing such as IQ, perception and empathy testing? My first time at the autism clinic my therapist said I should get tested as I had many traits. So be it...!

They have all sorts of tests. An IQ test is standard, amongst others. The less you know about the tests, the better, because knowing too much may skew the results in one direction or another.

The one test that I would request is a Job Aptitude test - something that gives you some idea of what kind of job or career you might be suited for.

It's not necessary, and i did not have one until I was in my 30s.
