Every time. EVERY TIME somebody finds this and takes the test, their friends take it too - and then pop up with their results, asking "what does this mean"? Look. Unless your score was very high (above 35) it doesn't mean anything. There's a reason the AQ test isn't used for diagnostic purposes. It is completely possible to be NT and get a fairly high score. It's possible to be on the spectrum and score under the mystical cut-off of 32. It's possibly even possible to be on the spectrum and get a relatively low score. The numbers don't mean anything by themselves. If you're really curious about what your score means, get a book or an internet connection or something and research the autistic spectrum instead of asking "what does this mean, what does this mean". Nobody can tell you what a score of 17, or 20, or 26 means.

*sits and waits to be told what those scores mean*

Good lord I'm considered gifted and my score is 43... your friend needs to get over it. I know someone with an IQ of 150 that probably would score a point or two difference from me. Another one with an IQ of 200. They are autistics and they aren't slow, backwards, or whatever other stereotype people try to throw at autistics.
