Holding a part-time job while studying can disrupt a student's studies in three main ways:
1) It causes stress as students must juggle schoolwork and job responsibilities which mixes problems from both. The stress lacks energy and harms study spirit.
2) It makes students lose focus on their studies as they have to divide attention between work and school instead of focusing solely on studies.
3) It leaves less time for students to study and prepare for exams as packed schedules at work and school leave no extra time for academic activities. While some can manage both, most students lack time management skills to avoid disrupting their studies.
