6 week v. 8 week test

I know 12/13 weeks will be conclusive but is there any point in waiting until the 8 week mark to get an indication? I keep seeing the Experts and others say testing 6-8 weeks will give you a very good indication of your status. Can I take a 6 week result and ease my mind or will an 8 week test give me a much better indication. Thanks.
