What other DNA tests should I take?

I think ancestrydna is worth a shot. They updated and add like 5x more reference samples, my results changed a crap ton from before

[RandomGuy20]

Since the updates AncestryDNA is pretty accurate, though the regions are still quite broad. LivingDNA has more refined regions, especially for UK and Eastern Europe. I recommend both

[Armenian Bishop]

I recommend both 23andMe and AncestryDNA, because 23andMe gives the best haplogroup information, while AncestryDNA is the best place to search for distant ancestors and build a family tree. I'd recommend AncestryDNA, especially if you want to become more familiar with your ancestral relatives.

they all work with each other trying to get as much money out of the buyer as possible

i heard FTDNA raw data is the best.

NationalGenographic uses the same chip. Could be interesting to know your ancient mix.

I forgot about this test. You never hear about it.

Living DNA data is less accurate, much less SNPs tested. Makes for larger distances and components that are too high in Gedmatch.

Eg my k36 with LDNA data had my North Sea at 26%, higher than Danes, and my Italian at 13-14%, as much as Southern French I think. Ancestry had me at a much more reasonable 22.7% North Sea and 7.4% Italian.

Have you had the livingDNA test done?

Yeah, it was the first one I did.
