MKTG2209 online. Will never give you a higher grade than a 96 on HW/assignments making it very difficult to stay at an A, grades harshly especially on HW @ end of sem. So much busy work for a class of non-DMSB majors, more than any of my actual major classes this semester. If you take this, make sure to do well on quizzes and final group project.MKTG2201 2025-04-22 19:22:50 +0000 UTC
Wright is very knowledgable and enthusiastic about the subject and makes class interesting with lots of open discussion. He is a tough grader on the case write-ups and holds everyone to extremely high standards on all assignments and class participation. Be sure to come to class prepared because he will not be afraid to make an example out of you.MKTG3301 2012-04-13 13:23:32 +0000 UTC
Great guy who knows what he is talking about. Crystal clear on what is going to be on the test and makes the class fun.MKT201 2010-08-04 12:53:02 +0000 UTC
Extremely nice, very helpful, entertaining, obviously cares about marketing and the kids a lot. Makes you aware of marketing in the news.MRKT2201 2010-01-14 15:26:24 +0000 UTC
I don't like him. I went to him during office hours and he was essentially useless. Is a HARD grader on case write-ups which account for 40% of your grade. He loves the slides he posts and expects you to use them, even if you don't believe in them. Final project is wicked hard but really makes you learn.MKTU301 2008-12-10 15:43:46 +0000 UTC
Great Professor! I learned a lot about Marketing and it was interesting as well! He tells extremely funny stories to relate the material to real life experiences!MKTG200 2008-05-05 15:48:41 +0000 UTC
Great class and dedicated Professor. He expects work from you, but its worth it and very interesting. I've him for two of my marketing classes and I'm always engaged and interested in the material. He works hard to keep us updated with the latest marketing news and trends. very real world!MKT506 2008-03-05 16:08:00 +0000 UTC
Prof Wright is very knowledgeable and had interesting lectures. There are not a lot of assigments so the ones you do have you really have to do well on. Homework just consists of reading cases for class discussion. The group term project is pretty extensive and you dont get to pick your group!MKTGINTR 2006-12-08 12:03:02 +0000 UTC
Great Prof. Watch out for tests. Learn the slides by memory and the class is super easy. Team project is really easy as long as you meet early in the semester. Great intro to marketing class to take. Really funny at times.INTROTOMARKET 2006-05-04 01:20:41 +0000 UTC
He was ok - a little strange. Tough grader given the fact that AFTER he turns graded assignments back he tells you how he wanted the assignment to be done. You'll learn a lot from the cases but he is not always clear on how he wants things to be done. Be careful...MKT301 2005-12-19 00:41:34 +0000 UTC
Very entertaining. Class participation is a huge part of your grade. He grades tough on the case studies. No tests.MARKETINGMNGMT 2005-12-02 15:42:01 +0000 UTC
Probably the most interesting class I've been in. The assignments were fun to do and I definitely learned from them. Other than the fact he gets a lil too excited over marketing, he's a good professor.INTROMARKETING 2005-08-31 10:59:05 +0000 UTC

Believes one can't score higher than a 96... So you won't be able to get a 100% on anything except his quizzes. The course's grading is well balanced, but homework is somewhat long and you need to be extremely detailed to do well. Somewhat flexible with extensions, but not the best.MKTG2201 2022-04-15 18:41:29 +0000 UTC
