Schoolwork: it really depends. it can be zero one week, but then the next week i would have to make it up. so it can be anywhere from zero, to like, forty.
ECs: hmm, maybe fifteen to thirty. it depends how much i am working that week.
Studying for SATs/SATIIs/APs: i am done with the sats, so i just have the ap tests to study for. but i haven't been studying at all lately, haha. so right now, it's zero. but when i start it will be like five.
Exercising: like two. i should do more like three though.
On CC: well, i watch tv and go on cc at the same time. so the hours overlap. but it's like ten, i guess.
Watching TV: like twenty, combined with cc. sometimes more, sometimes less.
Reading: probably ten.

Schoolwork: 15-30 hours
ECs: 35-45 hours-ish depending on the week
Studying for SATs/SATIIs/APs: 0 Don't believe in it.
Exercising: 4-25 hours... this overlaps with ECs sometimes...
On CC: between hw assignments and randomly..
Watching TV: depends on the week..
Reading: For school, I counted under schoolwork, otherwise... I don't read much except for school breaks and summer.

edit: The number might seem a bit skewed, because I often miss school for ECs, and then count make up time as schoolwork, and I don't sleep a lot on weeknights.
