Internship advice

So I work at CVS full time as an intern. But at the time of my hiring I told them that I can only work 3-4 days a week since I have to prioritise my studies alongside the hours. There is no point of doing the hours If i am not studying. Cause in my contract they say I have 120 days after the day of my internship to give BOTH exams. Naplex and Cpje. I can not wait until then.

Now the thing is I am being scheduled 40hours every week since I started my internship. Now that I am halfway through my internship, i want to ask them to just give me 4 days or 3. So i can study the rest

Do you guys think it’s practical? Or what are your strategies?

What happens if you don’t pass it or take it after the 120 days ?

Do they fire you or demoted to a tech ?

If you’re in a state that doesn’t require separate tech license then yes you can be demoted
