Teenager w/ part time job; help!

I’m still in high school, and work retail part time. This Thursday I am on the schedule for 6.5 hours after school, which exceeds the maximum hours I explicitly stated on the form I filled out when I was first hired. Also, I have a test the next day I brought this up to my manager, who signed off on the form with my max hours, and told her I cannot work 7 hours on a school night, let alone any more than the hours I put on the form.

I brought this up to my manager, who signed off on the form with my max hours, and told her I cannot work 7 hours on a school night, let alone any more than the hours I put on the form. She said that’s not their problem and to find someone to switch with if there’s an issue.

She also said that I can work more than my maximum hours? I’m confused about this, and don’t even know how to approach it. As a student, no actually I can’t be expected to work more than that

I don’t understand why they would schedule me above my max hours and not be willing to do anything about it when it creates a problem any advice/insight would be appreciated.
