Need some help guys: 2-day split

[Slump]

Hi guys. For the upcoming weeks I'll be very busy studying as well as taking my final exams. I will therfore cut back on my sessions at the gym so that I have more time to study and focus on my studies during this period.

My goal is to maintain my strength and size, but of course if I could gain during this period I'd be more than happy to do so. I'm bulking right now so I'll do my very best to eat enough, which I know I will be able to do.

My routine for these upcoming weeks will look like this... don't be afraid to criticise my routine , and please do give me your thoughts and view.

Day 1: Legs, back, biceps, traps
Squats 2 x 4-6reps
Front Squats 2 x 8-10reps
Deadlifts 2 x 4-6reps
Leg curls 2 x 8-10reps
BB Rows 2 x 6-8reps
Cable Rows 2 x 6-8reps
DB Curls 2 x 8-10reps
DB Shrugs 2 x 10-12reps

Day 2: Chest, Shoulders, Triceps, Calves
DB Bench 3 x 6-10reps
Weighted Chest Dips 3 x 6-10reps
DB Shoulder Press 2 x 6-8reps
DB laterals 2 x 8-10reps
DB rear lateral raise 1 x 10reps
Close-grip bench press 2 x 6-8reps
Seated calf raise 3 x 10-15reps
Standing calf raise 3 x 20-30reps

I'd appreciate any input.

Thanks for the input guys. This routine looks pretty solid to me - at least the excercises I chose - just wanted to see if you guys had any input on this. I'm used to relatively high volume training (4 to 5 sessions a week), which in fact works pretty well. I have used "low volume" before - as in no more than 6sets for big muscle groups, with pretty bad/mediocre results.

Just hope that 6 sets for chest as an example will be enough.

Thanks guys
