    When you configure BE 2012 to start two jobs at the same time, job which runs more frequently will be superseded by the job that runs less frequently. In your case on first saturday monthly full will happen as it is the job that runs less frequently among Weekly FULL and Monthly Full. Same applies to daily and weekly backups. Only thing you have to keep in mind is you must configure jobs to start at the same time and linking different media sets with proper protection with the jobs.

    EDIT: Once configured, have a look at Backup Calender. Change the view to week and see the backups configured.
