A question for students! :)

I prefer the messenger type bags. The shape of them usually seems more conducive to carrying books. That's what I take to school. I'm only taking two classes right now, so I only carry one book and the chapters I need for the other (it's not a typical book, it's loose leaf and you put it in a binder).

In your case, I'd carry a backpack with part of the books and a shoulder type bag for the others. I'd hate to try and put that much in any single bag.

That seems like a good idea. Because I have four classes and they are all on the same days it would probably be wise to carry a backpack. (My camera and stuffs can be carried in their case. )

I still have two backpacks that I got at old navy when I was in high school. They got me through high school, college, sleepovers, hiking trips... they are so durable!
