i currently work 12 hours a week alongside doing 4 alevels - maths, further maths, physics and economics. i have a busy schedule with only one or two lunchtimes free a week, two free periods where i typically go to the gym if i can to stay active and then my evenings are busy every day apart from fridays which i keep for homework. all my money from working is going straight to driving lessons leaving me no money left to spend on hanging out and general stuff and so my mum said i need to up my hours to 15 a week, bearing in mind i also tutor for an hour on mondays. while i get that my hours do need to go up in order to pay for everything, i barely have time as it is to do all my work and prepare for uni - competitive degree and applying for oxford and my grades in economics and physics are slipping as it's getting difficult. my colleges also reccommends no more than 8hrs for a typical 3 course student so with 4courses and 12hrs i'm already well over.
i'm not sure what to do - do i up my hours at work to maybe 14 and then find another person to tutor so i then tutor for 2 hours a week as well or what. how badly will this affect my alevels and is this manageable because my entrance requirements are two a* and two a's and my physics is currently a c and borderline a in economics
