Hello and AQ Test

John C

Hello, I’m new here. About a year ago I took the AQ test and scored in the 40’s. I’ve taken it several times since and have gotten lower score but I think the very lowest was 33. What are the chances I’m on the spectrum? The last being 37.  I’m 62yrs old so there is no answer that is going to rock my world as I’m very set in my ways. The cost of a formal diagnosis is more than I’d care to pay. Any sincere input would be appreciated. Thanks, John

    I’m cross dominant, which for me means I write with my left hand but will favour my right hand for near enough every other task.

    When I was in the stage of pondering “Ooh, is that the autism?” about everything, I did find a few websites and forums suggesting a link between this and autism. None of the sources seemed to be particularly reliable from a scientific viewpoint though - more anecdotal.
