Reviews of professor Dolly Jorgensen

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
There are 3 tests and a final. You need to study and start working on assignments early as sometimes you will have more than 1 programming assignment due a week but sometimes they will give extensions.

Her lectures are just reading from the PowerPoint, the only plus is that her lectures are uploaded. She talks too fast and she does not give you enough time to write stuff down. Be sure to study ahead before attending lecture, so you don't fall behind.

Very unprofessional, didn't know how to properly administer tests online. Handwrote code most of the time, but hardly legible. When she did write code, it was agonizing hunt-and-peck.

There are 3 tests and a final. You will sometimes have 2 programming assignments in assembly a week, so starting early is best.

The first couple of weeks is smooth until they start teaching you the heavy material. IMO its way too much homework considering you have 2 labs a week to worry about. The only reason I learned how to code was through TA help, tried to reach out to her a couple times and didn't receive a helpful response ever. The exams are difficult.

First class I've gotten below an A. Really difficult but makes sense since it's an introductory CS course. 1 project every 2 weeks with 4 pages of instructions for coding. 2 lab assignments due each week. Not bad of a professor but class is something you can't slack off or procrastinate in. Mean grade was 50-75%  in that range.

If you're really on the fence, try attending both Dolly and Ed's lectures within your first week. The workload between both is similar anyway. I thought she was a fair grader, helpful, and she gave more extra points on exams than Ed. No extensions, but will answer your questions. Start hw early and go to tutoring if you want to pass.

Two long coding assignments per week which doesn't allow students to focus on their actual job or other classes. Assignments build upon each other, so if you don't understand something, you will continue to lose points as the Professor and TAs were not willingly helpful. Has too many questions on the exams. No curves are given or considered.
