Ok lemme start this by saying that i'm first off neary triracial (African, European, and Asian) and i have a gut feeling that AncestryDNA slightly butchered my results, and i have decent amount of evidence. 1st of all with this.

Ancestry DNA results: 67% European, 27% African, 3% Middle eastern, 2% central asian, 1% Native american.

So far i feel like only the Gedrosia, Dodecad, and some of the MDLP are most accurate for me lol, so what do you guys think am i possibly more middle eastern than AncestryDNA tells me or should i take Gedmatch with a grain of salt haha

(Edit: heres a additional test thats from Gedrosia K3 these are the results that made me think over my percentage middle eastern)

however i pretty much know that these results arent very accurate personally for me because my dad's side of the family are more from England, France/Germany, in alot of results also from the Atlantic Baltic and eastern european specifically Russian or Hungarian/Bosnian, my mom's side is mostly African/european cuz of the slavery on the caribbeans, so it would make sense i would get my middle eastern from my father also because they have hooked noses aswell and my dad's sister also has a natural tan and almost black very curly hair so yeah

To me that's quite accurate. You are almost exactly 25% Sub-Saharan African and only 3-4% Asian and Native American.

Try Gedrosia K3 as well.

Yes but allow me to explain, my mom's family is mostly 60% african 40% european, so if thats correct by those logics i should have approximately around 29-30% African and 20% european from my mom's side, i cant get more than 50% european from my dad's side. However my dad's side is also southern/northern/eastern european, and slavics and italians/greeks have approximately like around 22% from SW Asia or more, so by those logics i should have atleast 10% middle eastern from my dad's side, and ive also noticed that with Eurogenes and MDLP world my results are ALOT different from AncestryDNA's and Dodecad/Gedrosia's. Personally for me Gedrosia and Dodecad work best for me because they make alot of sense, however that does not mean that they are any more accurate than Eurogenes' perhaps

these are my Gedrosia K3 results, these show that i am genetically decently close to Yemen and Bedouins, which makes sense 2 me. Because if i were only a quarter african and three quarters european i wouldn't be as dark colored as i am, my hair is ALMOST black and same goes for my eyes, my skin color is noticably light/medium brown so yeah.
