Autism: Autism, add and odd can be screened using rating scales.At times some psych batteries are done for school iep plans.There is still a clinical interview and evaluation needed to clarify the DX and address the core disabling issues.Best will be to review it with psychiatrist or a psychologist. Don't worry all these issues are very well understood and treated much effectively in 2012. All the best.

Gilliam Autism : Rating scales scores are read on a bell-shaped curve. Norms were obtained by scoring > 2, 000 kids with classical autism. 90-110= an average probability of having autism. 70 = no probability of having autism. I use the childhood autism rating scales, normed by rating > 2000 kids with no autism. See a developmental/behavioral pede & child psychologist to treat adhd & odd & for other testing.
