I'm doing a bit of a social experiment. Are there any austistic people on Smashboards?

And if so, how would you rate your ability to do algebra. Can you do it now? Have you had troubles with doing algebra? I'm doing a bit of a personal report, and I wanted some testimonies, if I could have a moment of you time. PM me if you want more details, but basically, I'm doing a personal report to give to some higher ups of mine. I am an autist myself actually, and would like testimonies from fellow people on the autistic spectrum.

While not being fully autistic, I am. Although the fact autistic people are dumb is a misconception as some autistic people including myself like to live in routine. If you take an autistic child at maybe 9 and set aside an hour to draw a spaceship or something they will draw a spaceship. Some autistic people can actually think of things more creatively than a normal human.

As far as my ability in Algebra, I can do it well. I take Algebra II and can easily do the work. Sometimes I may need to look up how to do it on Khan Academy or resort to Wolfram Alpha, but put it simply I can do algebra as fine as a normal human. I just may need some help in areas others may not.

There are a fair number of autistic smashers, but not a lot of people actually check this room.

Edit: Oh God there are like 20 people reading this thread thanks Chimaux lol

I am, but I'm frankly horrible at algebra, as well as most math beyond high school level. My strong sides are social sciences, y'know, history, philosophy and stuff.

I am autistic. I like to flick my pen alot, have concentration problems and might have problems of understanding some things eg. emotions, certain topics but despite that i am fine overall i honestly don't have bad autism.
