Jihane, as Advocate-General, performed very well and brought very original arguments to the competition (as confided by one of the judges) but lost in the finals against the A-G of HECS Paris.
Christine, Ilja and Dina each performed exceptionally good throughout both days and the team reached the finals beating inter alia Columbia University and Université Paris II Panthéon-Assas. In a true nail biter, the team managed to finally overcome Hague University and will be going to the All-European Finals on 31 March 2017 in Luxemburg!
