First show, and 10 weeks out! Help

[CodyM34]

Im am about 10 weeks out from my first show. Im cutting at the moment and am following a calorie cycle plan that my buddy is using. We are competing in the same show but he is 25 and I am 17. So basically what I'm doing is High, Moderate, Low calorie days as follows

High- 2375 kcal
Mod- 2075 kcal
Low- 1775 kcal

Monday- Chest (Cardio AM) High - 2375 kcal
Tuesday- Back (Cardio AM) High - 2375 kcal
Wednesday- Cardio PM - Low - 1775 kcal
Thursday- Shoulders/Arms (Cardio AM) Moderate - 2075 kcal
Friday- Legs (Cardio AM) High - 2375 kcal
Saturday- Cardio PM - Low - 1775 kcal
Sunday- Rest - Low - 1775 kcal

At the end of the week it equals the same calorie deficit as if I would follow the same amount of calories everyday for that week.

So my questions are as follow:

Is this a good approach to the cutting diet?
Is it true it will preserve more muscle mass?
Will it keep my body guessing and therefor burn more body fat?

Thanks to all, your help and feedback will be greatly appreciated!

So here is an update of my exact plan:

High- 2375
Mod- 2075
Low- 1775

Monday- Chest (Cardio AM) High - 2375
Tuesday- Back (Cardio AM) High - 2375
Wednesday- Cardio PM - Low - 1775
Thursday- Shoulders/Arms (Cardio AM) Moderate - 2075
Friday- Legs (Cardio AM) High - 2375
Saturday- Cardio PM - Low - 1775
Sunday- Rest - Low - 1775

High = 2375 kcal
Pro = 2 * 180 = 360g = 1440 kcal
Fat = .25 * 180 = 45g = 405 kcal
Carb = 530 kcal = 135 kcal

Mod = 2075 kcal
Pro = 2 * 180 = 360g = 1440 kcal
Fat = .25 * 180 = 45g = 405 kcal
Carb = 230 kcal = 57g

Low = 1775 kcal
Pro = 1.8 * 180 = 324g = 1296 kcal
Fat = .25 * 180 = 45g = 405 kcal
Carb = 74 kcal = 18.5g
