How Can Poor Concentration Be Treated?

Hey doctor. I am a college student, studying for med school and I have a huge respect for you that you made it through all of the cours work, and I notice that when I sit down to study, I simply can not focus. When I am in class, I get stressed out and that seems to motivate me to do my work but when I get to a quiet study space, tons of little things distract me. I put my phone away to try to aid but then I find myself wandering around the library or wherever I am looking at random things and not doing my work. I know most college students experience lack of motivation but I feel like my symptoms may be excessive. I was wondering if these were symptoms that could be treated or even need to be treated. Thanks!
