I have trouble concentrating, too - especially if it is on something I don't want to do. And I don't have ADD! Having this disorder is nothing to sneeze at. Perhaps suggest to your parents that you do a trial period with the Ritalin, or whatever the doctor agrees to.
Then, turn off the TV. Then set small goals for yourself. For example, I'll work on my homework 30 minutes, then take a 10 minute break - and the another 30, on and on, until the work is done. Or your goals can be getting so many steps of your homework done, then take a break. The breaks are rewards for yourself. But you need to use self-discipline to do it. Just remember you are doing this for yourself

Don't say, "Okay, tomorrow I'll do this." Instead, say, "Right now I'll do this."
If you don't want to do it now, why do you think you'll want to do it tomorrow? Just do it and get it out of the way. That's what I do.
Also, shut off the tv. Maybe even go to the library, where you know you can't be tempted by entertainment.
Consider moving to lower level classes, too. You might be in classes that are too difficult for you.
Also, create a schedule for yourself. Allow at least 2 hours for homework and studying. Also allow 2 hours of relaxation/tv time.

This phenomenon is pretty common but it went away when I stopped smoking....Make sure you are eating breakfast every morning. Taking a multivitamin is a pretty good idea too. Are you sleeping 6-8 hours each night? As for the homework, if you have the opportunity to schedule study hall as your last class, you can get most of it done there.

Don't sweat it. I never listened in class, never did homework, never handed in a single assignment. I've never passed anything in my life. But I went on to become a certified genius. Go figure.
