[quote=Anonymous]Honestly, I don't think 3-4 hours a night of homework is that much of you are taking 5 academic subjects. That means you have less than an hour of homework a night per subject, which seems light if you are taking all AP courses. I think this can be mitigated a bit with a block schedule, but to teach a rigorous class you have to assign reading and problem sets and you have to study. At my high school five hours wasn't unheard of, which is pretty intense. 3 hours is doable if you get out of school at 3:30, have an hour of extracurriculars, spend a half an hour commuting, a half an hour changing and showing, a half an hour eating dinner, and three hours doing homework that gets you to 9:00. So you have some buffer room to goof off, have an extra hour or two of homework, have a longer commute, or do a couple extracurriculars after school and still go to bed well before midnight.[/quote]
