Apparently the Arabic teacher told the mids that they can expect an average of 3 hours of homework per night if they want to pursue an Arabic minor. From those who know the academic routine at the academy, is this extremely difficult to pull off? I am sure additional responsibilities such as varsity sports and leadership make this even harder. Any thoughts?

Three hours per night, just on ARABIC?
I'm sorry, but that's next to impossible. I simply cannot imagine anyone being able to maintain that for 3+ years and not bombing the rest of the curriculum, no matter how smart they are.
Study hall normally lasts only 3 hours per night. When would they be expected to study the easy stuff, like Chemistry, EE, and Thermo?
Are you certain he meant just for Arabic?

That cannot possibly be right. It just can't.
I don't care how difficult Arabic is, it cannot possibly take up as much study as the entire normal curriculum combined. There's no way.
I'll tell you what: If it's true, almost NO ONE is going to graduate with that minor.
