Not really a good luck charm, but I do say a small prayer before each test and before walking into any of my patients rooms...
My husband bought me a beautiful silver cross necklace to wear, but I am not allowed to wear anything like that. I did sneak by and wear it for a couple of weeks and didn't think anyone would notice...
When did I think I could get something over on a 20+ year veteran nurse?:chuckle She didn't even say anything, just wrote it down in my grid we see each week (that evaluates how we're doing) and asked me to review the dress code!:)

I really do not have a physical charm but I do use prayer. I have this friend who also used the same pencil and she would freak out if she could not find the pencil before the test. That was during our first semester but now all tests have moved to the computer so there is no need for a pencil.
for the first few years i always had to sit at the same desk until one day me and two of my friends had to site elsewhere we all got A's and now move to a new desk in a different section of the room on test days "just to get a new perspective on the world" i dont know but it works for us.

I was just curious if any of you have any good luck charms you've used through school or any rituals you do before every test? I have used the same brand mechanical pencil since I began...and feel like l'd jinx myself if I took a test with a different one :) It's my lucky pencil...I am only half-joking here!
