Gedmatch analysis! Breaking down myths.

[Dire Dewa's son]

Gedmatch admixture analysis tools are very precise. I landed 25-35% middleastern, 25%-30% Horner ,15% Caucasian, 12% subsaharan, 15% Persian consistently. How did you guys score?

15% Caucasian

What does Gedmatch even look like, is it that thing that lists ethnic groups and numbers like 0.23, 4.56 etc?

 

[Mohamud]

how does that work? did you manually put in everything that your 23andme result gave you and gedmatch did its own analysis?

It's admixture based on chromosomes. I think. But yeah there are models that use numbers and different units but I just stick to the admixture results using the Harappa, Eurogenes, and PuntDNA tools.

Aren't Horners (hate that term) categorized as Subsaharan Africans?

It's super easy there's a link for 23andme so you can upload your data. Took less than 5 mins to sign up and upload.

No not all and it depends on which tool you run the data through. Most will have horners under e. African or Horner category even northeast African is used

Oh right.
How long did your 23andme take once it reached the labs. The wait is too tedious ...

I know I'm only Somali by culture and history. Technically I'm AfroIranianArab.

I'm pretty sure my results took 6 weeks thru 23andme.

And that 6 weeks is after the "Your sample was received at our laboratory..." (step 3)?

Yeah it took 6 weeks after they received it. But heres my Jtest which checks how much Arab components you carry also Mediterranean and African. I'm pretty much 50 /50
Im west African @7%

Its fake.

Why does each project have totally opposite results? One result says I'm 40% Arab, another one said I'm 30% West African, another said I'm 20% South Asian, another said I got like 9% Native American, another said I'm 10% Jew? They even gave my Pygmy ancestry. 10% Nilo Saharan. 33% Palestinian.

I'm also 15% French in another project. Kkkkkk fake site.

No it's not then you might as well disregard all DNA analysis.
The readouts that give you a breakdown vary because each study has a different definition for Southwest Arab or how they place East African genes because in some tests East African is Northeast African and they also study different time periods based on your individual 23 chromosomes. If you don't believe Gedmatch you don't believe in science.

Fake like CNN

The French were used as a marker for outside genes not that you were French. Once you understand the science it'll make sense.
