Take the Geek Test

Are you a geek or a nerd? Then you might have Asperger’s syndrome - a condition that affects geniuses like Einstein and Newton and Bill Gates. It makes you bright at maths and IT but very dull in life generally.

Take the test here to find out:

30 here. i think some of those questions were repeated?

Re: Take the Geek Test

This is what the scores mean:

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

Unaffected
Result: 21. Your score isn't an achievement, it just is.
Psychologist Simon Baron-Cohen and his colleagues at Cambridge's Autism Research Centre have created the Autism-Spectrum Quotient, or AQ, as a measure of the extent of autistic traits in adults. In the first major trial using the test, the average score in the control group was 16.4. Eighty percent of those diagnosed with autism or a related disorder scored 32 or higher. The test is not a means for making a diagnosis, however, and many who score above 32 and even meet the diagnostic criteria for mild autism or Asperger's report no difficulty functioning in their everyday lives. You scored less than 32. Make your own assessment of that

I dunno wat to make of that ...

Re: Take the Geek Test

it probably means you’re a bit shy or socially ‘gauche’ … you definitely don’t have AS.
