Reviews of professor Gorkem Asilioglu

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
I had to take him for so many classes because he literally was the only one teaching them. He was no help and he took absolutely forever to grade things so infuriating. I would avoid taking any of his classes and if you do be ready to teach yourself everything.

Lectures were repetitive and he made no attempt to make them more interesting. The three midterm exams weren't graded until the final week of class. He doesn't explain well and doesn't answer emails until far after the deadline. On the plus side, you barely need to understand it to do well in the class, provided you know how to study for exams.

i think a lot of people are wary of gorkem after discrete structures, but ive found him great in other classes. goes over plenty of examples in class, clear instructions for assignments, helpful in office hours. goes over programs in class too to make sure you really understand what you're supposed to be doing. had a lot of fun with this class!

I'm sure he's a decent human and all semester I tried finding a reason to like him but every time I thought "ok this ain't so bad " he would do another stupid thing that made me hate this class even more.

I always attend class and rarely do poor on exams in other classes. Gorkem has never responded to any of my emails. It has taken him literal months to grade exams. We took the final missing two exam grades. He makes no attempt to make the boring and repetitive lectures interesting. Take it with another professor if possible.

lectures are super boring.  80% of the class stopped going after the first week.  when there are programs he leaves you alone with the javadocs and expects you to figure it out, when no one can even figure out what his instructions are asking.  his quizzes and online exams are all on quizlet so slay, but i didn't really learn anything
