also the problem I have is Tue and Thursday I am in school from 8am to 1:30pm and have a break from 10:40 to 12:15 and ten minutes in between classes all other days there isn't anything that would get in the way of the diet

what are the macros in those meals and total macros for the day?? looks like you are eating too much protein but i cant tell without the amounts and macros. something like 1g pro/lb, 1-3g carbs/lb and approx 20-25% calories coming from fat. that is a good ratio to try to see if it works for your body.

I am looking at around 180g per day?

180g of pro per day is plenty when trying to bulk as long as you are eating sufficient carbs and fats. carbs are protein sparing so u can keep protein a little lower if you are eating plenty of carbs.

What are some of the best foods for carbs?

i like pearled barley, lentils, ezekiel (bread, cereal, tortillas, english muffins), berries (vitamins, antioxidants), apples, steal cut oats, sweet potato... list goes on. as you can see i like lower gi foods. they provide fiber and give you less insulin release. post workout i use sizeon and then have eggs and barley about 45mins later. so i cover the hi gi post workout with the sizeon.
