this bag is like a suitcase! i love this bag!!!

It's so durable! it can hold everything i need it to! trust me, it's a great purchase for anyone. and when i have to put it on the floor in class, it's not big or in the way at all. it's just what i needed for the school year.

No. The sides are not very sturdy and everything inside does not stay organized.

I use this bag for that particular purpose.

Since there is a LOT of room inside, my books tend to shift around, (ie, flatten to the floor instead of stand up), but I'll be mending it to fix that.

Despite the bag being very lightweight and limber, it's very strong and holds my laptop, textbook, lunch and waterbottle all very well.

I say it would be a very god buy considering the functionality of all the pockets!

Not at all. I've only had it for a month and my strap broke today. I've only had a 5 subject notebook and one heavy textbook in it.

Also, it doesn't hold it's shape well so your books will lay weirdly in it. Don't buy it. Go for something more structure from somewhere else.
