Full time students with part time jobs - how many hours do you work?

probs around 30 a week at present, suits me because student nights with uni are actually on my days off (get monday mornings, weds and fri off) so i can work and catch up on rest then, and i get some decent gaps between my lectures on a tuesday
 
I spent January to May of my 3rd year working 15 hours a week. Wednesday and Thursday 12-5 and Saturdays 12-5.
Just a matter of really good time management :) I did have the 'advantage' (if you can call it that) of barely having any lectures so I just did a lot of coursework which is easier to juggle.
I don't work currently while doing my Msc but I would consider it, but probably only 10 hours at most. Right now I think I'll just be working all over Christmas break to tide me over the next term.

It's hard but I have cut my expenses to less than £40 a week inc nights out. I's all about drinking a bottle of £2.99 wine before you leave :)

Correct!

Don't work during term time, i have ~20 lectures/practicals a week. Worked all summer, 14 weeks, that should see me through the year.

And it was first level IT support at a school, not my intended destination after my degre...
 
I have full time college and only have time for about 1 day out of 7 to myself, that's only if i get down to my work over the weekend though. I'm not in a rush to get a job, but if i did it would be no more than 10 hours a week. I just wouldn't cope with anymore at the moment, the work load is huge.
 
25 hours a week I failed a 2nd year course, dropped to 17 hours and I found it much easier. I guess it depends on your outlook on it all, ideally you dont want to work but its easier said than done.
 
I do either 15:00-05:00 on a Friday or 15:00-04:00 on a Wednesday depending on what I choose that week. Works out ok for me.
