Default Critique My Meal Plan

I've created 8 daily meal plans, from meal 1 to the last. I did 8 to have some variety, and so I can choose any plan on a given day. They are all similar in nutrient %, and I've posted only one below. The rest I can post later on if anyone is interested.

Anyway here's my info and what I'm trying to accomplish. Critique away:
Height: 5 '6 & 1/2
Weight: 148 lbs
Body Type: Ecto-Meso (more ecto than meso, although I do have some body fat storage)
BF%: Not 100% sure, but I'm thinking around 12%. I don't have much.

Goals:
Gain 15lbs lean mass in 12 weeks. Ater that, I'll see where I am.

Using the Harris Benedict formula posted in Dr. X's "How to Bulk" thread, I've concluded the following:

I Need:
Cals: 3052
Prot: 305g
Carbs: 305g
Fat: 68g

Now, my body likes to adjust to calorie intake quickly. I have a feeling it will adjust within the first 2 weeks. If so I may have to incorporate calorie cycling. Any pointers on that, such as frequency and amount would be helpful.

Meal Plan A:
Meal 1:
6 egg whites, 1 cup oats, 1 cup skim milk, 1 scoop whey protein
Cals: 622
Protein: 58g
Carbs: 73g
Fat: 7g

Meal 3:

Cals: 455

Meal 4:
2 small cans tuna, 1 Tbsp Flax Seed Oil, slice cheese, 1 cup green veggies
Cals: 510

Meal 5:

Meal 6:

Meal 7:

Cals: 300

Carbs: 14g

Total Cals: 3052

Total Carbs: 287g
Total Fat: 70g

Target Cals: 3045
