Confirm Your Suspicions

Ever wonder if that little personality quirk is more than just a quirk? Confirm your suspicions (accusations) about yourself, family, friends, etc.   
AQ   Click on the link to see where you fall on the Autism Spectrum.

Ye olde Wikipedia mentions a trial of the AQ at Cambridge showed Mathematics, Engineering and Physical Science students scored significantly higher than average on the AQ. Wiki Ref

What conclusions might we leap to based on that bit of info?

    Is there any significance in the fact that I prefer pistachios to peanuts? BTW my score is 11. When are you freed from academia for 2009? "Too much learning hath made thee mad."

    I got 18 - a healthy middle ground, I'd say. What's your score Sonja? Can I venture a guess??

    I won't lie, I don't like it... I was hoping for much lower!

    12 the first time, but trying not to appear socially defective. 14n being more honest. Gee whiz, Crystelle, social genius. Steph, direct inheritance of defective Ohsiek genes. Sorry.

    I took it, and I suppose I can say it was a realistic score. Yes, it's high. No I'm not going to post it. As I write this, I'm in a back office and haven't seen anyone for over an hour. I need a career change.

    Lets start a pool for predicted scores of the two engineering Ohsieks.

    Oh no, we're all developing complexes over this darn test. It quantifies crazy.
    I think it's one thing to be anti-social (as most Ohsieks are) but quite another to be fixated on numbers, patterns and odd things, which is what I typically associate with autistic behavior.

    Joe is a very well adjusted person (no surprise). His score was so low he wouldn't even tell me - below 10. Hugo has a good chance of turning out okay.
