Rumor says it went viral on TikTok, now some of the neurodivergent YouTubers I follow are mentioning it, so I thought I’d try it out. I expected a high score but not quite that high.

My review of the test is the same as every other I’ve seen: hot damn, these questions are significantly more relatable and easily understood than any of the other tests’ questions.

    I like this test. Most autism tests focus way too much on social skills (or lack thereof) when:

    1. Plenty of autistic and other ND people have good social skills but pay a terrible price through masking

    2. Plenty of NT people have terrible social skills due to bullying from belonging to a marginalized community or just due to inexperience

      I don’t mask but I do get exhausted a lot, even if I go non verbal and just sit and listen. I can hold my own socially but it can depend on a lot. If I’m not familiar with them it’s incredibly difficult in person to talk so I can drop my spaghetti

    Babe wake up new autism related questionnaire just dropped!!!

    208 here, and is it weird that I came off of this test thinking both “damn that was rad, I really felt those questions” and also “I fuckin love being autistic”?

    190, lower than others. But a few questions did make me think “well that’s not true because I mask” and maybe I should have said yes anyway lol

    190/235, average 4.04 - greater than 38% of people with autism and 93% of allistic people

    Also some of these questions seem like they’d apply to neurotypicals too, such as “talking about something I’m interested in is comforting” and “involvement in an activity of interest lowers anxiety”. Like no shit doing something I like makes me feel good/relaxed.
