I was a political science major and also participated in a varsity sport. Monday -Thursday I typically spent 3 to 5 hours reading or working on papers. Thursday night was usually a short study night since there was usually a decent (for Swarthmore) party to attend. I acutally spent most Fridays studying since I often had athletic events on Saturdays. Saturday nights were reserved for nice dinners, parties, trips to Philly, etc. Sunday was a haevy study day to get ready for the week. So, in answer to your question, it was easy to spend over 30 hours a week on schoolwork.
