So, you think that 5 hrs a night is a reasonable expectation for high school? I took every AP class available in high school (bio, chem, physics, lit, history...) and I had very little homework as I recall. I don't know how kids sleep or have any social lives or part-time jobs like we all did if they are in school for 7 hrs/day and then expected to do 5 hrs of homework when they get home!
