FREE: Comparing DNA Companies, Ethnicity and Match Results (Hybrid class) (Education)
12:00 pm to 2:00 pm HYBRID: OGS Annex, 965 Oak Alley, Eugene, OR and on Zoom
NOTE: Class is Noon to 2 pm PT
With Black Friday DNA sales coming up, it is a good time to show which tests and tools each company offers, and why you may want to choose a specific company for testing. This 2-hour presentation will compare the speaker's ethnicity results, the total number of matches from each company, the number of close matches, and the unique matches from each company. The five companies compared are 23andMe, AncestryDNA, FamilyTreeDNA, Living DNA, and MyHeritage DNA focusing on autosomal DNA.
