In some countries, most of the students of our age work part-time while they're coursing their last year of high school. Is it really a good idea?
On the one hand, it helps students pay part of their student loans. Some high schools and universities are very expensive and maybe what their parents earn is not enough to pay it. It also gives them freedom because they're not depending on their parents and this prepares them to face the adult world.
On the other hand, studying requires time and obviously if you have a job it's going to be even harder to have time to study. Another reason why this is not a good idea is the stress students suffer already. Having to work too can be too exhausting and stress can lead to emotional issues.
My opinion is that, even if it helps you pay your loans and maybe makes you feel more independent, having a job interferes too much with your studies and studying is the most important thing right now. It's what will make you find a real job that you will enjoy.
