Balancing A level, gym, work and social life

I recently joined 6th form, studying Maths, Physics and Chemistry. I also recently got an offer for a job. I also have booked dates to see my friends and girlfriend, but ALSO want to learn to drive.
Monday-Friday 8am till 4pm is 6th form
Saturday 9am till 6pm is work
Sunday 10:30 till 4:30pm is work
Friday 4 till whenever is seeing my friends

I also go to gym 5 times a week
I also need to see my girlfriend once or twice a week
I also need to book driving lessons in somewhere.

How would anyone manage all that time in just 7 days a week?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks.

This is something i've been struggling with too! not knowing how to balance all my activites.
But i would just say that try to pioritise your responsibilities and activites, like do what you believe is the most important short term and long term.
go to the gym 3 times a week
I am in exactly the same boat! haha
Gym before 6th form, girlfriend in the evenings

The problem there is that I don't get each muscle group exercised
prsom full body workouts are great
In the same situation rn, my solution was to do a 3 day split - push/pull/legs. Only thing with gym is you need to consider that block of time well to include the commute,shower and cooking and eating.
Ask your girlfriend to join you at the gym? Can progress together? That way you've got 2 in one there
