No.
But your failure to see the details in the instructions kinda proves that you aren't in any case.
Autism isn't a mental illness, it's a mental disorder or disability. Much like being born with one arm isn't a physical illness. It's a disability.
16.4 is the average, 32+ is a correlation to people with Autism Spectrum disorders. (Correlation does not equal causation, and here 32+ doesn't mean you have Autism).
Course, "NO" is what you thought.

and rocks constantly back and forth and can't talk.
He's autistic. Looks like a little more than a disability
to me, he can't do anything for himself.

Never mind, read it wrong. 80% of people on the autism spectrum score 33 or higher, not 80% that score 33 or higher are on the spectrum.

I would do, if that will help you. What do you think a severe mental disability is?

Won't help me in the least. He has more than a
'severe disability', he's practically a basket case.
When my sisters gone he'll require expensive
24/7 care. His quality of life hovers around zero.

Not arguing that. But you did ask me to tell him, so I was offering to do so. Sounds like he wouldn't care if I did or not, though, so I have no idea why you wanted me to tell him something he had no hope of comprehending. Rather odd behaviour, Bob. Any other people mentally disabled you'd like me to talk too?
But whatever, still makes him mentally disabled. Not Mentally Ill. There is a difference. You can care to agree or not. I'll let you tell the next mentally ill person you see your decision.

Some friends of mine from college were joking once that I had autism. Of course I said they were crazy. Then I score a 33 on this.. haha. But then again, I feel like some of those questions I felt answering one particular way would confirm autism, so maybe I wanted to score like an autistic. Then any failures in relationships or career can be blamed on that.
Obviously I can function just fine. And my roommate, the same friend that said I was autistic, is very scatterbrained herself. She does a bunch of weird things, very ADHD like..

I got a 14. It means we know how long to talk, we
know when people are getting bored, we enjoy social
situations without monopolizing the conversation,
we don't memorize license plates or phone numbers,
we can tell how a person is feeling by observing them.
In other words, we have social skills because we aren't totally
absorbed in ourselves.

<-- Jeez...new leader? 34.
The test gave you the answer key at the end. Some questions you had to strongly/slightly agree to score the point for it; others you had to strongly/slightly disagree to get a point for that question. And it listed which question numbers needed an agree, and which question numbers needed a disagree.

17. But I'm going to send the link to my 17-year-old son with Asperger's--he'd probably score the max. He's the one ranked second in his class, but he prefers cats to people. It's sad but funny when he's the one who answers the phone when I call home.

When I was growing up, I think I might've been diagnosed with a mild Asbergers had they diagnosed the way they do now.
I just have an inclination to numbers, with a declination towards petty chitchat. I do have trouble meeting new people, because most of the time I'm not too interested in what others have to say. Quite frankly, I don't see anything wrong with that, since most people don't have anything important to say.
I do feel very uncomfortable when making eye contact. I think I come across as cold when I'm dealing.

Many of my answers would have been the opposite when I was younger. The other elders on the forum can confirm but my experience is that as you age you want more routine in your life and less suprises.

Yeah, I don't like that either. It's definitely a weak methodology for a test like this. Most use a geometric weighting (0 for neutral, 2 for slight, 8 for definite is somewhat common). But, I'd hate to fixate on the scoring mechanism for the test about this particular subject;-)
