Start your homework earlier, Im sure you dont get 6 hours worth of home work a day! You need to get more sleep and then you will learn much more effectively...;

you need to establish a good bedtime routine and stick to it. decide if school work can be done at another time maybe during your lunch break at school etc. your bedtime routine should start at a reasonable time and allow your body and mind to unwind to prepare yourself for sleep. i suggest a warm bath, warm milk, reading for a short period etc. it also sounds like 11 pm is far to late you will need to bring bedtime forward.

11pm isn't that late! Although being a guy you need more sleep than girls. I don't sleep till 3am some nights as I think too much! At least your getting over 6 hours!

Do some of your homework at school and then go to bed at 9 instead of 11. You'll feel a lot better.

When I got home from school each day, it was 4.30 and I would sleep from 4.30 until 6pm on the sofa, then get dinner and do homework. I found this "catnap" did me the power of good and recharged the batteries before I started any homework. I did this for 7 years from first to upper sixth year and I think it was great. I know the pressure on kids these days is crazy, but if you have a nap, then 4 hours of homework after beign well rested, will be more useful than 6 hours of homework when not rested properly. Hope this helps. Good luck with your studies.

Set a time when you're absolutely going to finish work and go to sleep. Make sure the room is dark and not full of distractions. Write down everything on your mind - like what you have to do tommorrow etc), then think of an endless road or something really boring.. . Then as soon as you wake up - get up - open the curtains, let in the light. Get straight up without thinking about it, jump in the shower or have breakfast - whatever works best for you.. . Make sure you stick to it though. Hope it helps.

That happens to me. Right now in High School it is very HARD for us to go to sleep. I don't know. Take a warm shower and start to do your homework really early so that way you can go to bed early.
