Het is een fijne en uitgebreide website met helpende documenten en samenvattingen!
Gemakkelijke website voor samenvattingen te vinden aan een klein prijsje.
Zeker de moeite als je een groot vak op het nippertje niet helemaal rond zou krijgen.
Prima service, snelle afhandeling. Ik ga hiervan gebruik maken gedurende mijn hele studie.
Prima website waar veel kennis te vinden is. De website heb ik gevonden door te zoeken naar samenvattingen.
