My results and questions

[Dragoon]

My family has tried both 23andme and ftdna.

My autosomal dna was done by ftdna.
I got almost completely European/Eastern European (98%) with a tiny amount of Middle Eastern/Asia Minor/Anatolia (2%).

My brother had his done by 23andme.
He got mostly Eastern European (69%), a good portion of Nonspecific European(25%), and tiny amounts of Ashkenazi (3%) and Nonspecific Northern European(3%)

1)Is it normal for results to be this significantly different between two sources for siblings? Shouldn't results be similar?
2)Somewhere I read that ftdna is still working on their autosomal dna results and 23andme is more accurate for Europeans. How true is this?
3)Can the Nonspecific European portion actually be Eastern European?
4)Why do my results give a tiny amount of Middle Eastern, and his gives a tiny amount of Ashkenazim?

1) your results are most likely similar, it's a way companies interpret it is different, try gedmatch.
3) yes
4) Most likely it's the same segments, just ftdna see it as ME, and 23andme as ashkenazi, i'd rather trust 23andme.

My sister and I score differently in 23andme. I score 61.2% balkan, 1.6% northern and 2.5% eastern, while she scores 93.5% balkan with 0 northern and eastern.
