I got 0.0% scandinavian and im from northern scandinavia! Instead i got 62.3% northwest european and those numbers i usually get on other calculators for scandinavian.
The baltic at 26.3% looks right.
The other numbers i got where 10.1% central asian and 1.3% siberian & amerindian which i get on other calculators in various numbers. So a big miss on the scandinavian with this calculator.
I emailed dilawer about the Scandanavian NW European issue. This is what he said:
The Scandanavian cluster is a very weak one as it is represented by only a handful of individuals from public data ( still looking for a good source of samples). This component was very reluctantly included and users are cautioned that there may be considerable overlap between the NW European and Scandanavian clusters as the genetic distance between the two is very low, and many NW Europeans are heavily Scandanavian admixed and visa versa.
A better cluster to have been included in the K29 would have been based on Finns. Here again I did not have sufficient samples and am still searching for a good source of Finn samples.
Therefore Finns will be predominately parsed out as Baltic with some Scandinavian or Northwest European and a little Siberian as shown by the results of these 3 Finnish public samples
Also users are reminded that the most accurate results will be obtained with 23andMe V3 V4 because other data will have less overlap with the markers used in the calculator. normally this would not be a big issue however in this case because many of the European clusters are genetically very proximate to each other, more markers are needed to distinguish neighboring clusters.
Finally users are reminded not to use Gedmatch calculators to gauge the accuracy of this test, as those are inherently much less accurate, and to keep an open mind with regards to paper trails as they don’t go back far enough.
