I like the idea of a sorcerer getting academy training, and the ability to fuel metamagic with spell slots from the other class is just amazing. Still, even with practiced spellcaster, you'll be two levels behind (but have a great caster level at the same time) -- by level 20, assuming you continue a full wizard caster level progression, this will mean spells per day as wizard 18 instead of 20, costing you two 9th level, one 8th level and one 7th level spell slot. The spells known and per day of a 9th level sorcerer (at caster level 17 -- with practiced spellcaster and UM spell power), the ability to apply metamagic with those spell slots, and the increase in spells known, as well as a wizard caster level of 22 (just UM spell power, without second practiced spellcaster) are worth it, IMO.</blockquote>
