Elsevier Magazine summarized the results as follows:
“Students are not very pleased with masters about Europe. Amsterdam, in particular, does not seem to have everything in place: career preparation, especially scoring below the national average. But it also scores negatively on almost al the other aspects of the degree. Leiden is a positive exception, with an exciting programme, good staff and a very well designed degree. Because of the small number of students, it was impossible to make a trustworthy judgement about Groningen, but in 2008 the degree still received much praise from the students”
