The main thing that helped me concentrate on my homework was being pressed for time. It was honestly impossible for me to do most of my work if I tried to do it in a timely manner, but when I got to a point where it was 'do this shit now or fail' it was surprisingly easy to stay focused on the work (though of course I have to keep an eye on the clock as well).
That's obviously a terrible thing to be doing, but remembering back over my time in college I realize that's how I finished the brunt of my work.

Yep. I fully agree. I found out a few times that me trying to do something ahead of time usually took me up to 5x as long as it should have taken me if I had just put it off until the last minute. Case in point: about 2 years ago, I had a Computer Engineering project to do. Attempting to be the good little boy that I was, I tried to start on it a week before it was due. For the next 5 days I worked on it just a little each day. By the time the 6th day rolled around, I pretty much scrapped what I did the last 5 days and redid the entire thing on that day and got it validated on the 7th day and turned it in the 8th day.
Of course, you hit the nail on the head for the flip side too. This becomes problematic if you have a lot of classes which might throw homework at you at any given time, potentially screwing up your schedule. Luckily, most classes give you about a week to do homework, so this is rarely an issue.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
