Precalc? In college? Comp Sci major? These 3 things seem incompatible.

I think you are missing something big here. For being a programmer, I *really* suck at math, but everything up through multivariable calculus was still extremely easy for me. If you actually have to work and study in order to do well in precalc, you should probably find a new major. I'm really not trying to be a dick here, just trying to save you from a miserable time.
In school, I had a lot of the same problems you did. I went to very few classes, couldn't stay motivated and failed a couple of classes (math classes, go figure), etc.. etc... I still managed to do well, though, and the reason is that I found what I loved doing and focused all of my classes on that. Writing papers and studying for exams felt like "work" and I hated it - spending night after night in the CS lab writing code was pure joy for me, and its the only reason I managed to get through at all.
