Good design, poor organization, subpar laptop cushioning

Rating:***
This is a very nice looking backpack with good construction....unfortunately, that's where the positives end. The organization is abysmal. There is no key ring or separations for holding pencils. There is only one small zipper pocket and for some reason, 2 cellphone holders and that is it. Size is average. I could probably fit 1-2 textbooks and my notebook. As for the laptop pocket, there is only cushioning on the side facing the back. The side facing the other compartment is just thin fabric. This makes me think twice about ever running with my backpack on if I have textbooks and my computer because the textbooks might smash into my computer without any cushioning. I do like that it is at least a separate compartment though, instead of a pocket inside a larger compartment.
