Default Are you a bit Autistic ?

Was talking about this and apparently a lot of people in my line of work (IT) are so I did this online
test thing and got a score of 5 so I don't think I am (average for blokes is 17, women 15, which is what my wife scored)

So do it, be honest and post your score, I have an idea who might be a bit "Rain Man" and it will be interesting to see the results, anyway, I am off to organise my cd's into alphabetical order....

22 only just average.

I keep spotting autistic 'looking' people, especially in Norfolk.

7. Other people frequently tell me that what I've said is impolite, even though I think it is polite.

ok nothing I didnt already know I guess

Your score: 33
0 - 10 = low
11 - 22 = average (most women score about 15 and most men score about 17)
23 - 31 = above average
32 - 50 is very high (most people with Asperger Syndrome or high-functioning autism score about 35)
50 is maximum

Female
Male

ive no issues with social stuff but I do remember bloody weird things you would never consider putting to memory, number plates are a real issue for me, I can remember everyone of my dads cars number plates from when I was able to read.

All of mine have been j4mou so that's cheating a little numbers especially long numbers like credit card numbers were also an issue, people used to ring up when I worked at egg and I could remember peoples card numbers from their names when I had spoken to them in the past (I got moved from that department quite quickly lol).

I'm average, my son is way above average.

It's known that when doing this type of quiz people can be characterized with most 'labels'. Something as simple as the type of mood you are in at the point you take the test can alter your score.

Most people can be classed as being 'on the autistic spectrum'. It's a very in depth condition, containing other conditions such as aspergerd and 'add' of 'adhd' as it is sometimes known.

Personally some people are just different.

If you had got a more normal score you would have found it a little more difficult to be successful on the swinging scene
