I'm either stupid or our schools were vastly different. I took 12-13 hours a semester all the way through, and still spent 50 hours a week on school.
Of course, we had several professors that prided themselves on upholding the 2-to-1 ratio. For every hour in class they wanted us to do at least two hours of homework/projects.
Granted, if you cut out the 16-20 hours wasted every weekend on going out with friends, and the 20ish hours a week wasted playing video games, I probably would have had plenty of time for both.
