That's what I do:
-I'm most of the time studying in my room, when no one else of my family is with me (you tend to talk to anyone rather than learn^)
-I turn off every electronical things, e.g. radio, tv ... (sometimes I'm studying with the laptop to look up things)
-I'm thinking of studying all the things I do, or finishing my homework asap because I know that after finishing the burden on me has gone and I'm free (atleast till the next homeworks^)
When I'm coming back home from college I'm always starting with my homeworks right after lunch because I really can't be happy when I'm not having done all my work before going somewhere, watching tv, or surfing. =)

Wat i do is just disconnect my self from everything
Making sure my room door is shut so no one will bother me, turn my mob off so i dnt get distracted and sign my self out of msn and facebook, until i get it done.

I don't know about other subjects but I'm a pre-med student. Most of science is memorization so I repeat each line in my head/mind 5-7 times. This trick works for other liberal arts courses like philosophy as well. If you're already repeating something in your head, then you're mind won't be able to wander. Can't think two things at the same exact time. 😆

For math related stuff, I practice a couple of the same type of problems one day and then move on to the next topic. Before an exam, I pick a few problems from each chapter and do them over.

My main tip would be not to leave everything for the last moment. Plan how much you want to cover each day so you're not stressed the night before the exam. Plus loosing sleep the day of the exam can affect you're short-term memory.

Hope that helps (:
