      The fact that 29°C is circled makes it so much better for some reason

        Because it’s the number of “temperatures” (or rather the 1-degree increments between them) on the thermometer. Which you just counted by drawing an arrow to each one. It’s the right answer to the question they didn’t realize they were asking. 💯 A+

        (I appreciate that the teacher wrote “?” thus giving the child an opportunity to explain their answer, and see if they could provide the conventional answer if given a better prompt!)

                Tbh so did they, (see arrows) but 31 wasn’t one of the choices. Tbextrah, there’s infinite temps in between the full degrees.

            Yeah, but that’s not one of the “options” in the list. If you misunderstood what was going on, the closest option is 29 increments, because 0-1 is the first and 29-30 is the last.

            It makes sense in a misunderstanding and making a logical guess sort of way. That’s how I took tests, too, and it works way more often than it doesn’t.

      “Link the three temperatures below to where they individually belong on the thermometer.”

            The arrows are supposed to be pointing to the temperatures on the thermometer. Notw from the thermometer to the temperatures.

          Well, if you ace the autism test it means you have autism, meaning you want it. If you fail the autism test, it means you are being troubled by the condition of having autism, and were administered the test to verify if your troubles are stemming from autism.

          Usually the tests are not given to people that can successfully mask and be classified as “high functioning”. Implying that if you are interfacing with the autism test, it’s usually not to see if your excellent programming skills stem from autism, more likely why you tend to be put in distress when lights give off a hum while you wear a wool sweater.

          This particular example would be the person failing the test, because instead of correctly assuming the question was to get you to match the numbers to the correct part on the image, you failed by following instructiones too literally.

      Incorrect, temperature isn’t only measured in whole numbers. The whole thing should be solid black with arrows.

        They were supposed to draw arrows from the numbers at the bottom to their place on the thermometer. Context is there, but they certainly should have shown an example or worded it differently.
