Which genetic company is the cheapest to take a test and is it worth? Or should I go for 23andme?

I'm not a guy who has a lot of money but I'm definetely interested in taking one, but should I take the cheapest one (which I don't know which is) or should I take the most famous and I suppouse the best genetic testing company (23andme)?

What's your budget?

I would strongly recommend you to go for 23andMe.

The cheapest is MyHeritage if I am not wrong but their autosomal isn't good (my humble opinion) and they don't analyse your haplogroups.

I would strongly recommend you to go for 23andMe.

Currently? From 50 to 80 euros sometimes.

I agree.

If you know about genetics, MyHeritage. If you don't and are not interested in learning, 23andme or FTDNA.

Dude, go for 23andMe. Currently it costs more or less 100€ with the shipping costs. If you really want to go ahead and do it but you think it is a struggle or to much over your budget just PM me and we can rearrange a transfer for the remaining you need since you are still a student.

Care to explain? An autosomal that gives 30% Greek to Iberians is absolute crap, sorry. Plus, no haplogroups.

Every commercial ancestry reports are crap. MyHeritage tests 700.000 SNPs of your genome, not more not less than much more expensive tests. If you know about genetics and the basics of ADMIXTURE statistical methods, everything you need is your raw data and your brain.

My 23andme aligns pretty dam well with all the other calculators that use the raw data, so how is it crap?
