Dr. Wright is great. He cracks me up and posts all of his lecture notes for you to print out.

This Guy rocks, great guy, down to earth, loves what he does and does it well.

very fun and interesting. hard to follow sometimes because he goes off on tangents. very easy to talk to.

Generally clear, fun, helpful.

his analogies are tones of fun and make it easier to learn the material; he's a really nice teacher who is the student's advocate, not their enemy

He is a great professor. Posts the lectures so you can print and follow. He sometimes goes off talking about other things but he uses good examples. Easy to talk to.

DR. Wright is the best professor I have ever had. He is very understanding about everything, and he does not demand that sudents make his class the sole priority in their lives. I HIGHLY recommend him for any class, but especially marine bio.

Professor Wright is so cool. He's hard to follow sometimes, but he's really good about going over things until you understand them.I'd recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Wright's lectures are a little hard to follow sometimes. But, he is commited to make sure his students suceed and is very excited about the material we cover. I would highly suggest him.

Lectures are very demanding,but he is an excellent prof. He is always there after class to help for as long as it takes for you to get it.

He is a great professor. The lectures are clear and he goes over everything. Sometimes he skips around but for the most part there is good structure. Exams are challenging. Not regular questions, more applications.

Sweatiest man i've ever met, but class is fun and tests are clear, he tells you the exact information that is going to be on the test. I you study, you can get a good grade with ease.

this man is hott. all i did was daydream about him in class, should of paid more attention,and i probably would have passed! oh well one more semester with him isn't bad for me! TAKE HIS CLASS!

Really good professor. He made bio easy for non majors.

Hottie!!! I love guys with prematuraly graying hair, and he has got it....mmmm... Oh yeah, and he happens to be an awesome teacher! Very dedicated. He would have 6 hour review sessions so that ppl could come in when they could.

Great professor. Even if you hate bio, you will be ok!! Get him for lab!! He is the best lab professor that you will ever have...as long as you try you will be ok. And yes...he is very good looking :)

Really hot for his age. He is a great teacher. He is really animated and interesting. The subject matter is a little hard if your not a bio major. Its a lot to remember. He has quizzes every monday, and no multiple choice in this class.

He's halarious! He knows the material is tough, so all of his quizzes and tests reflect his notes/powerpoint. If you go to the classes and write down what he tells you, you will be sure to do well. He was a blast to have as a professor. He LOVES it when you ask questions during class.

Prof wright has to be the funniest teacher ive had. he loves his dr pepper and throwing random things at the overhead. he has adult ADD but he definitely makes sure u understand. plus he gives a lot of extra credit. HES A TOTAL HOTTIE TOO!

Wright is quite possible the best bio. professor ever... he is hilarious, and is really easy to understand... This is my favorite class, and i strongly recomend that other people take his class.. it's amazing!

Dr. Wright is soooo interesting. Sometimes he can go off on another subject randomly, but he is so passionate about what he is lecturing on and keeps the class interesting. He doesnt expect you to know every single scientific name for every little thing he teaches and is realistic when it comes to tests. I wish I was still in his class!

he rocks

exciting, interesting, and fun lectures.

Wright is a good teacher, he does tend to go on rants, but it makes the class entertaining. The exams are easy as long as you read the packets and answer the questions he gives, and if you dont get it then he is always willing to help.

Dr. Wright is a very nice man who does a lot to help out his students. His tests questions are given to us ahead of time and then he selects a few and he is very good about giving you credit for an answer when he thinks you're even close to it. He is a funny guy in class but it isn't distracting it just makes the class more entertaining.

Dr. Wright is really good and even though he goes off on tangents and can sometimes be a little confusing he gives you all the questions to the test prior to the test so you know exactly what to expect. he really wants students to do well and is really helpful. plus he gives a lot of opportunity for extra credit

Great teacher!! He gives you notes so you dont have to read a book. He gives the questions that can be on the test. He hands you answers if you're in the ball park. He goes off on tangents but his class is fun and he's a cool guy. Pay attention to the packets and in class he will help!

Professor Wright teaches Biology in his own way and, for some, this can be a bit daunting. He does give questions for homework, but they are just to help you on the next "miniterm" because he uses those exact same questions. He does try to remember everyone's name and gets distracted but his notes are easy reading and helpful.

He always tries to make sure everyone understands the material, but sometimes he gets too caught up on tangents, or he spends a long time grilling a single person on one question, which slows lecture down. I think he does a good job of generalizing biology so that both majors and non-majors can grasp the concepts. But you do have to study a lot.

Exams are somewhat predictable, but challenging for a first year student. Study hard. If you are a Biology Major, you should really get an A in this class.

Proff Wright is truely the absent minded professor. His lectures are all over the place, but if you still to studying his class notes and his study guides you will do find. His test come straight from his study guide, so be sure to answer the questions. Overall for bio majors its pretty easy. For non-majors it may be a bit of a challenge

He's a funny, zany scientist, but he's excellent at what he does and he'll do just about anything to make sure you understand the material. Easy-going, but really funny when frustrated. Talks to you as an equal, not a student.

I LOVE Dr. Wright. He's made me fall in love with biology and inspired me to pursue aspects of biology I never considered before. He makes everything clear and is available during office hours and beyond that time. He's overall an amazing professor.

Professor Wright is probably the best professor I've ever had, he's friendly, helpful, super enthusiastic, and overall incredibly fascinating. He loves what he teaches, he loves his students, and it's really obvious he loves his job!

I liked the class. He's nice if he knows you-and he knows you if you participate or go to his office. gives extra credit for attending class fri. quizzes every monday. have to study a lot.

Great guy. Gives you the questions for the quizzes and tests ahead of time.

My favorite class from first semester by far. Just attend all SI sessions and visit his office hours and you'll receive an A. All questions are given to you, just take the time to answer them and you'll be fine. Great guy and great class.

Dr. Wright is a really nice and reasonable professor. Read the primer. Answer and memorize the test questions before the test. One quiz every week and extra credit on tests and for attending class on Fridays (sometimes). Excellent class and the lectures were very interesting. Would take again.

Sometimes he rambles and gets confused with what he's saying, but overall, he's really nice and is always there to help. He's very patient when the class doesn't understand what he's saying. But beware! If he learns your name, he will call on you. He gives you all the questions for the quizzes and tests, so if you study those, you'll be good!

Hes awesome really chill doesnt require too much just read and you will be fine

He's really chill and if you read and pay attentions in class you'll do fine. He has a funny personality which is helpful. His tests aren't that bad. You don't use a textbook but you use a book he wrote the "primer."

Amazing teacher! Quizzes and test are very easy if you study the study guide. He provides ALL questions that will be on the test! Never any homework! I wish I could take him again. Favorite class! Go to office hours!! Super helpful!

The class is literally the primer. Know the primer in and out and you will get the grade you want. I never missed a point on any of the quizzes and I found all the answers in the primer

He's pretty awesome. Cool guy. Really easy tests. I've always aced them.

Great teacher. He gives you all the questions to the tests before hand so memorize his study guides and it's an easy A. If you are having trouble answering a specific question go directly to him or a SI and they will be happy to help (be direct maybe read him the answer u have and ask if that would science full credit). Super easy.

He's honestly such an awesome teacher! He does sometimes go off onto talking about random things, but I honestly love him and I would retake his class any day.

Professor Wright's lectures can be confusing at times, but he really is an awesome teacher once you get used to his style. He uses the textbook he wrote to teach which is super helpful, and he gives you the quiz questions before taking quizzes. Would definitely recommend.

Dr. Wirght is interesting. He goes off on tangents a lot but overall he delivers the material you will need to know for exams. He's kind of also all over the place a lot. You do have weekly quizzes and the primer is your Bible so make sure you buy that. He's also very specific in his gradings so make sure you practice drawings and have every detail

Dr. Wright may be confusing at times, but he actually cares a lot about his students and really wants them to learn. If you put in the effort to see him outside of class, you'll do better in the class. He came off as intimidating in the classroom but after visiting him outside of class for personal issues, he was very caring and understanding.

Dr. Wright is a very considerate teacher. You have to show up to class to understand some of the material, especially when he talks about something that isn't on the textbook. He gets off topic and is often unorganized, but the material is there and he's always there to help. Wright is also a very enthusiastic teacher, which makes class more fun.

I love Dr. Wright! He is super passionate about what he's teaching and he actually tries to make students understand by showing videos or doing weird gestures to imitate biological processes. He provides ALL the quiz and test questions beforehand. He does get off track sometimes and confuses himself every once in a while, but I highly recommend!!

I LOVE DR. WRIGHT!!! Yes, his class is a lot of work but it pays off! His lectures are so much fun and he really wants you to learn. It REALLY is a LOT of work but if you have to take bio TAKE IT WITH HIM!! I dropped my major that required me to take bio but I don't regret taking this class because of how amazing of a teacher he is.

Every weekend there was reading & primer ?s (questions). The ?s were near exact copies of the quizzes he gave every Monday as long as you read you got 5's EVERY SINGLE TIME. The tests were basically combos of the primers ?s and the drawings he went over in class but if u payed attention and studied the tests were easy. Also Wright was the funniest!

Amazing professor with a passion for teaching. I took Bio204 with him and had an amazing time. Similar to other professors, he's easily accessible through office hours or an email. The SI's are also very helpful so attend their sessions (they give you the answers for every quiz each week). Note that this class is heavy on drawing/note-taking.

Although some would say Dr. Wright is all over the place in lectures, I found his caring personality really awesome. He's always there for his students in office hours, willing to help or walk you through anything, and his quizzes and exams are extremely fair as long as you study the primer questions. Make sure to take advantage of office hours!

Wright is one of the best science profs at Chapman. He seems all over the place at first, but his teaching methods stick & make the material easier. Once you take classes after his, you realize how great of a teacher he really was. Class is straightforward if you do your Primer reading and complete the questions every week. Go to office hours too!

Go to class every day he offers extra credit sometimes. Gave us the questions on the final beforehand so it was easy. Sometimes confusing but email for clarifications, he responds fast. What you should know is your best friend - midterms are exact copies of those questions. Read the primer for the quizzes and drawings!! Def recommend hes great!

Dr. Wright has earned a rep for being a little disorganized. He was a bit frantic at times, but I think it's because he just has so many things on his plate. Aside from his teaching style, the class was an easy A as long as you read, sleep, and breathe the "what you should know" questions and primer. Be prepared to draw A LOT of diagrams.

Dr. Wright is definingly a character, his lectures are kinda all over the place but quite entertaining. I laughed more times in that class than I can count. If you learn in a more chaotic classroom then this is the class for you, but if you want a more structured environment then don't take this class.

honestly 204 with wright is easy, you just need to study. he gives all the tested material beforehand, so tough grading is understandable. yes he can sometimes be confusing but reach out if you get confused. your si is there to help too. he's a passionate professor, definitely gonna miss the energetic lectures.

He gives all possible test questions before hand in the what you should know. Just study that for test and quizzes. Also take advantage of any extra credit he gives. All you need to do is read the primer and be able to answer every question on the what you should know according to how he wants you to answer it because he can grade tough on those.

Honestly, a lot of kids in my class didn't like him, and he was sometimes forgetful, but it would liven up the class and because of this, I paid more attention in class. He graded a bit harsh sometimes but if I thought I deserved more points I would talk to him and we he would give some back a few times. Overall really enjoyed this class.

Quizzes every Monday, tests every other Thursday, midterm at the end of every month. However, if you just read the textbook, it tells you all you need to know and then lecture is just clarification. Also he literally gives you a study guide that has all the test questions word for word. If you put in effort outside of class, its the easiest pass.

There are several quizzes and tests throughout the course (at least one per week), but he gives almost all possible questions ahead of time. He communicates well and wants to help, as long as you put in the work outside of class. He gets distracted sometimes, but that actually helped me focus. He makes lecture entertaining too.

His class expectations are so straightforward. Weekly quiz & bi-weekly minitests follow posted What You Should Knows. Quiz questions often word for word from WYSKs. Complex cell drawings as class progresses; practice them a lot! Can get off topic in lecture and a little all over the place sometimes but he makes it easy to do well in his class.

Professor Wright's class has a specific system, but it works well. Engage with the lectures and textbook, and use tools like unstuckstudy for study prep. Stay focused, and you'll do great in this manageable class.
