I dont know if im scottish?

You'd get further trying to look up stuff through your family history instead of genetics. You should try ancestry.com or something like that. DNA testing will tell you your origin (what your family line started as) or you can do a population finder where they match your autosomal DNA (the genes that give you your looks) with other populations (ethnicities) around the world. So they would probably tell you Europe and only get a specific as Norther, Western, Southern, Eastern Europe, but not tell you exactly Scottish, French, Italian, etc. So I'd suggest you take the name of your oldest ancestor (grandpa, great grandma, etc) and search in something like ancestry.com and try to find old census papers or immigration papers and stuff. Good luck.
