Would you say the projects are good enough for entry level swe jobs?

Yes. Codemsith grads with no prior experience are by definition entry level SWEs and I think can compete with CS grads who don't have internships under their belt. I can go more into why if this is challenged, but that's my opinion.
Codesmith levels people by capabilities and not skills when talking about levels, which is the main source of disconnect.
My stance, CAPABILITIES GET YOU PROMOTED FROM JUNIOR TO MID IN 8 MONTHS, BUT NOT MID AS THE FIRST JOB. Again, can do into why but very strong opinion based on 8 years a Meta seeing it grow from 200 eng to 10K eng and observing a lot of growth of poele and hiring systems.
