GenoRisk™ Percentile

Better Understanding Your GenoRisk Score

Learn more about your personalized risk score and how it compares to risk in the general population.

What Does Your Percentile Mean?

Your GenoRisk report provides a personalized GenoRisk score on a scale of 0 to 40, as well as your adjusted risk of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) by age and gender. In addition, your score can be compared to that of the population as a whole by looking at your percentile rank, a number represented on a scale of 1st to 99th.

It is important to note that your percentile is NOT your adjusted risk of developing AD in your lifetime (which is listed on page 7 of your report), but instead is a number based exclusively on how your GenoRisk Score (pure genetic risk) ranks against others’ genetic risk in the population. You can determine your percentile by finding your corresponding GenoRisk Score in the table below.

As an example, a GenoRisk score of 29 is at the 95th percentile, which means that 95% of the population has a GenoRisk score less than or equal to 29.
