Patron Saint of test taking?
I have my german test tomorrow and Monday. Everyone in the class is sweating blood over it. We have to pass it in order to move on to the next course level. The test is two hours long tomorrow, one hour of grammar followed by one hour of writing a text. On Monday we have the speaking portion of the test. On Tuesday we receive our certificate (proof of taking the class) and also learn whether we can move on or not. I feel I've learned a lot in this class but there is still so much I don't know. And now the test, the test! Is there a patron saint of test taking to whom I can pray or make an offering?

According to the Patron Saints index, you'd pray to the Holy Spirit for knowledge. I couldn't find one specifically for test taking. I thought knowledge was close enough.
The patron saints for leaning are:
Acca
Ambrose of Milan
Margaret of Scotland
Nicholas Albergati
Thomas Aquinas
The patron saints for Germany are:
Boniface
George
Michael
Our Lady of Altotting
Our Lady of Kevelaer
Peter Canisius
Swithbert
Pray to a smattering of these and you should be ok.
GOOD LUCK!
Thank you very much for this research. I am praying as I type and am thinking of the appropriate offerings to leave to the various holy ones.
You could leave them a Santa pastry. I hear people like them.
Let us know how you did...
