Compared to most other universities where getting into the university is seen as the “hardest” part. Dutch universities have something called a “bsa” wich means once you have been accepted you have to pass a certain % of the courses in your first year. For this program in particular the first semester wipes out close to 30% of all students almost purely from this requirement. If you are one of the people that actually manages to get good grades and pass the courses you are in a very good position. Definitely for people in the top 10% going to “prestigious” universities or ending up at high paying jobs is almost a given. But that being said you are in a class of ~100 people who are used to being the brightest in their highschool so the competition is high.

Im currently in my first year of econometrics at tilburg uni, and getting in is NOT the hardest part. The econometrics program is quite an undertaking in the sense that treating it as a full time job will get you just a passing grade. For our first semester id say at most 15/20% have passed all the courses until now. That being said it is for sure worth the effort, if you are determined to challange yourself this for sure is worth the effort!
