First thing - don't search for motivation or don't try to get yourself
motivated. You'll end up looking for things that will make you feel good which
will in-turn promote procrastination and thereby take you away from actions.
The truth is motivation doesn't last. It's a push mechanism. You'll have to
focus on things that pull you towards it.

If you keep going like the way you are currently, how would your life be?
Definitely you understand the problem with it and this post is the proof. But
ask yourself - "why do you want to get A-levels at school?". If programming
and researching keeps you going, by all means, you should focus on it. Make
sure you put the best possible efforts in it; the rest will follow
automatically.

Take it easy, there are lot of options available online if you are not
enjoying what is being taught in college but you have interest in particular
subject. For e.g.: When I was in college I felt my profs. are boring, so I
always used to take online courses, like algorithms, operating system
through ocw.mit.edu or stanford.edu or coursera, It helped me a lot to
maintain interest in subject, and at same time participate in discussions
online, there is always a big community somewhere which will be happy to help
you.

I went through this phase of the British school system some 14 years ago, just
as the AS/A2 exams were being introduced. I'm a very technically minded
person, but I found school's treatment of these subjects to be intensely
boring. I found it hard to pay attention and not be distracted by some more
interesting or immediately rewarding passtime such as programming.

While much of the A-level material is presented in a tedious manner, there are
other books and sources available beyond your curriculum and I encourage you
to seek these out. Applied topics such as computer science and engineering
simply assume that you have a good grasp on
