That sounds good but for a begginner you may be overloading your muscles too much especially on smaller muscles like biceps and forearms: Try this if you want...

Monday:
Back, Biceps, Legs
Tuesday:
Chest, Shoulders, Triceps
Thursday:
same as monday
Friday:
same as tuesday

and on wednesday and sunday either rest or do cardio and rest on saturday, i did this and got great results everyone is different though, it's just a suggestion

that routine is horrible to the third power..

try something simple like this..

monday chest back

wednesday biceps triceps

friday shoulders legs

the big boys DO NOT do wrist curls and its not a good idea to work out 6 times a week and have 2 leg days back to back.and add in some more exercises!

Looks good to me, But I think streamline's is much better.

Drop the wrist curls, and fit some core training in once a week, on the tuesday.

For a 15yr old streamlines workouts will do you great, and will get you in good condition for anytype of training you want to do in the future, bodybuilding, powerlifting, fittness, sports, etc...

Post how many reps and sets your doing. I would suggest 6 sets of 10 reps. You'll still build muscle, and wont hurt yourself.

You'll ge bigger forearms anyway cos pretty much everything you do in the gym involves your hands.

If you want to work shoulders than some sort of overhead press is a must. As well as that you'd probably want to do some isolation of your deltoids as well. In other words, the deltoid has 3 heads, try some isolation exercises for all three of them and then do overhead presses as they work all part of the deltoids at once.

try this for your front deltoid (don't know anatomical name)
1. Standing up with knees slightly bent, hold a dumbell in each hand with your palms facing your body.
2. raise your left arm until it is parellel with the ground keeping your right arm in the same position.
3. Then as you lower your left arm raise your right arm until it is parellel to the ground
4. repeat for desired number of reps
* the direction you raise your arms in is "frontways", the same way your move your arms as you walk

middle deltoid (again, not sure of the anatomical name)
1. Standing up with knees slightly bent, hold a dumbell in each hand with your palms facing your body.
2 Raise both arms at the same to so that they are parellel with the ground and that your fists are facing the ground. So in other words, raise them sidewards
3. Slowly lower the weight until the pressure is almost off your shoulders then raise again for desired reps.
*If you do this one properly you shouldn't be able to handle a great amount of weight

Rear deltoid
1. lying face down on a bench at an angle of 30 - 45 degrees grab a dumbell in each hand and follow the same steps as in the middle deltoid exercise.

Sorry if the descriptions are bad i did the best i cood

And one more thing, do the isolation exercises before you do your overhead press. This way your deltoids are warmed up before you work all three at the same time.

C-Rad just go with 4 days a week you'll be fine.
Do NOT work the same muscle groups on back to back days.
Go with more compound movements such as dips and push press(shoulders). Lose as many isolation moves as possible. i.e. moves such as wrist curls will give you limited results to your overall goals.

Streamline you want a 15yr old who is a noOb to start working the 3 sides of his delts with isolation moves? C'mon man thats going nowhere.

I guess it was a bit too much but C-rad whatever you do, some sort of overhead press is the best for shoulders.

You wont know untill you try. Its fine to work a muscle twice in a week, make sure youve got 2days inbetween tho. But if you try and it hurts, then Give it some more time and work on something else.
