I've left out north-facing because I would bet folding money it's not. But all the same things would still apply: Get the window/wall under some sort of shading structure and check for/increase the amount of insulation. If the wall is south-facing, the good news is that things will actually get better in the summer when the sun is more directly overhead. It's possible the builder sabotaged the house (for whatever reason), and took the insulation out after the building inspector certified it for drywall. You also may want to check for the presence of insulation inside the wall. If it's warm to the touch at say 3-4 in the afternoon (10-11 in the morning if east-facing), shading the window will help a little, but better to shade the entire wall. If this is the case, you'll be able to tell by feeling the wall in the afternoon (morning if east-facing). It may be that the entire wall is poorly insulated and you've got heat seeping in through the entire wall, not just the window. If the window is east/west-facing, then the wall it's a part of is also east/west-facing and your problem may not be the window, per se. That should cut the heat substantially, but you can go further by insulating on the inside of the window with 2"-3" of styrofoam or polyisocyanurate insulation cut to tightly fit the window opening. Not something on the outside of the widow, but rather something over and in front of the widow that keeps the sun from hitting it at all - think about shade screen hanging from the eve or similar shading mechanism. Do something on the outside that puts the window in constant shade. If I am right, you need to start with stopping the solar energy (~1KW/M^2) from hitting the window in the first place. You haven't given any details on which way the window faces, but based on ".heating my bedroom up by over 15 degrees." I'm going to assume this is happening to a west-facing (or possibly east-facing) window, primarily in the afternoon (or morning if east-facing).
