[quote=Anonymous]Yes, you were wrong. If you really wanted an advisor's input, you should have suggested that your son talk to them about the feasibility of his schedule rather than doing it yourself. More generally, though, his schedule is not inherently bad. A lot of college kids find the kind of schedule he put together to be really helpful, where they have some days full of class time and other days are more open for studying and other activities. Some students find it really challenging to use their time well when they have two hours of classes in the morning, a two hour break (including lunch), another hour class, then a couple of hours before practice or another extracurricular, because it's too choppy to feel "worth it" to schlepp yourself to the library or something to only study for an hour, so the time gets wasted instead.
