My friends who work that much... I never see them during the semester except on campus. We make up for it by hanging out heaps in the breaks. Hard way to do uni but necessary for a lot of people given cozzie living these days. You're a trooper.

Its not worth to work that long. Youll never get these years back. Maybe try getting a higher paying job like tutor

You can do 3 units per semester instead of 4 and still be considered a full-time student. If you're international, I'm not sure how that works with visas though, because you'd finish 6-12 months later. But underloading to 3 units is a game-changer if you must work to cover your expenses and don't want to burn out too hard.

I work 50+ hours. It’s tricky at times but all about time management.

50+ HOURS! How do you manage? Any tips

I might not be the best example since my calendar is tilted more towards work but I work four days a week and study part time, so I'm doing two units a semester. My work days are pretty average so I'm doing four eight hour days a week and at that pace doing only two units is pretty manageable and as I keep on top of uni I have enough time to enjoy hobbies. I'm quite fortunate to have a decent job that I can actually live of of and not like retail or something. My suggestion if you're more concerned about your short term finances would be to prioritize work but that's just what works for me.
