Depending of the reasons why one comes to Amsterdam, I think if it is a total experience one wants; culture; language; new country; relaxed city,I can see that Amsterdam is a good choice. For academic reasons, a native-English speaking country is a better option as level of education will subsequently be higher.

There are many good sides to Amsterdam; it is a small city with a relaxed feel to it; small enough to bike around (which everyone does); and you get by in English. But to really get an understanding of what Dutch culture really is, one needs to make Dutch friends which is hard in itself and learn Dutch. That is the key.

Museum Cards. They cost about 22 Euro but well worth it. They let you get into most of the Museums in Amsterdam for free, or a fraction of the price.
