I finally purchased 23andMe:

Was it worth it? Got it for 20% off.

Depends on what you consider to be worth it. It's definitely accurate but a lot of Portuguese have been scoring 100% Iberian or close in the update that happened in October. Did you get the health package too?

I just purchased the whole test but I purchased it with health + ancestry. I've done FTDNA, AncestryDNA, and 24Genetics so far.

Imo It's worth it :) anything specific you're hoping to learn from 23andme? :thumb001:

[alnortedelsur]

Congratulations!

I think is worth it, since you can evaluate your ancestry from a different approach other than that on other tests you already made, and you can have a more complete picture of your background.

I did both Ancestry DNA and 23andme.

Nothing particularly, the health segment will be interesting. I probably won't be surprised by the results b/c my dad and mom, and siblings already did the test so I think it is my time to as well so I can compare. :)

True! Also the raw DNA for 23andMe is the best I've heard.

I don't think the gedmatch results differ much from those from Ancestry. But since you say that, from now on, on different threads about genetic results, I will post my gedmatch results with my 23andme raw data (I most frequently have used the results with my Ancestry raw data :p)

I ordered mine today too. Mainly interested in the health report and mtdna

I am getting my best results with this V5 chip raw data.

Thought 23andme is the most legit, but it proved me wrong lately XD

That will be awesome. Does it show mtdna for a male that does the test? I assume only a woman can find it out, and then they'd need a male to find their y-dna? Could be wrong lol.

You will get both reports because guys have XY chromosomes, I will just get mtdna lol

Oh right! But based on what I saw my parents get they just get very simple haplogroups which I already know. I’d have to do more expensive tests for more elaborate results

It did not detect that he is 99% homosexual.
