Testing Rituals!
#7
SIlentphantom0 Wrote:Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone else had some odd pre-exam rituals they do? (Not necessarily for superstitious reasons, just perhaps out of force of habit.)

Here are my three... Please pardon my openness on two of these, they're just odd things that just have to happen.

1. I always have to use the restroom before I sit for a test. Most of the time I really really have to go. I think it's just nerves... It's odd, but it's the internet, so I feel comfortable in sharing xD
2. I always wear my lucky four leaf clover boxers. Again, I apologize for being increasingly open... But yes, I have shamrock boxers.
3. I always pray, before my exam, during my exam, and before I see my score (lol).

In my earlier stages of testing I didn't have any set pre-test rituals, and I failed 2 or 3 CLEPs (never failed a DSST), but since I've had these (very very very odd) rituals, I have not failed an exam since.
Coincidence? Probably xD

So what are some of your embarassing rituals? My shamrock boxers have broken the ice, so feel free to share your most embarrassing rituals!

As long as the are four leaf clovers you'll do fine. Shamrocks always have three leaves and aren't really lucky Smile I guess I say my prayers beforehand, but its not like I believe God is going to drop answers from heaven for something I didn't study about. I always have about 4 pencils (the sharpest ones) and scrap paper although most of the time I never use them. I don't mark questions to go back over, I took the shot and if I miss I didn't get it and that's about it.
Don't forget that gaining college credit by taking exams is one of the reason's we're here. That's mainly possible through the flashcards made available by the owner of this forum : InstantCert Plus of course your hard work in learning and reviewing
