    Hi Sez,

    So, that "indicates a strong likelihood of Asperger syndrome or autism" according to the site's interpretation page -

    aspergerstest.net/.../

    You may be able to use this to help persuade your doctor that you should be formally tested. The free test is quite reliable but it is not the same as a diagnosis. It is enough to persuade most/all people on this forum that you are "one of us" but it doesn't have any official weight for getting any special assistance or reasonable adjustments under the Equality act.

    The next question is to ask why you want or need a diagnosis?

    Does this help at all?
