Cool, but not worth the cost

The overall experience was cool. It was interesting to find out details about my ancestry, as well as, whether my genetic code showed I was a carrier or not for certain diseases. But the rest of the test told me everything I already knew about myself, dark hair, can roll my tongue, not a supertaster, etc. I don't believe that the results were stunning or eye opening and for the cost, that's what I was hoping for.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I knew that I had siblings but I knew nothing about them. This connected me almost immediately to a half sister. I have communicated with three of the six. Very overwhelming.

Too general.

This was fun and interesting. I got this as a gift. My only complaint really is that the genetic groups are too general and wide. For example one group is England and Ireland, but surely there are many groups within that, Scotch, Welsh, English, Anglo Saxon, Gaelic. However it was fun. My report also took 8 weeks!

Great resource have me a lot of ancestry data. I've always checked demographics as African American. What came back from the DNA analysis states 53+% Northern European and only 42% African. Where the heck is Europe I thought . So, they must be mistaken. There's no one left to ask where did I come from. All older Ancestors are Saints in heaven. NOW, what box do I really check on demographic data forms ? White, Black. Or maybe other

Comprehensive Information, Stimulating Action!

Supposedly my father is 100% French and my mother is 100% German. The results more-or-less bore that out. However the main purpose was to look into Alzheimer's. My father and all of his sisters had it. I found I have "slightly increased risk of developing late-onset Alzheimer's disease". The report stimulates me to dig deeper and see what preventative measures I can employ.

I thought they would give me a complete breakdown on the percentage of the genetic make up not just one region that most of my genes came from.
