    People with Asperger's Syndrome often have a talent for pattern recognition which makes learning math come by much easier. They also have a greater ability to focus and concentrate and can memorize many facts about certain subjects. If you can find a way to utilize these skills than a person with Asperger's may develop a specialized skill set for future career choices.

    I cant think of any advantages of having aspergers but the downside is that it wil be on your medical record and if still at school on your school report which wont go down well for future employer reference, when you think about it aspergers put a person on the autistic spectrum and most people presume if on the autistic spectrum you are unable to lead a normal life - my grandson was diagnosed with aspergers because of social anxiety but personally I think he is just an average teenager that wants to spend his life in his bedroom on xbox? Good Luck
