My exam superstitions

So, since exams are around the corner (already started in my case), I thought I'd address my inner insecure idiot and list out all of the superstitions I have regarding exams :)
Now, I hope I'm not the only one out there who does these things, but I'm pretty sure everyone has their own variations of stuff like this:

1. I have a pair of lucky gold earrings my grandmom gave me when I was a baby, and I NEVER EVER go to write an exam without wearing them.

2. I have to have a family member feeding me a spoonful of dahi with sugar before I leave, and I cannot take it by myself, someone has to put it in my mouth.

3. I used to be obsessive-compulsive about writing only with an fountain pen, but the last exam I wrote with a ballpoint and I did better than usual, actually. So I'm having to revise my thoughts about that one :)

4. The morning of the exam, I have to go through my books one last time, no matter how "unhealthy" it is.

Yeah, that's pretty much it. I'd like it if you could let me know what your superstitions are, just so that I can feel a bit better about myself :D
