I dress up for finals and I do it for a couple of reasons. 1) When you look nice you feel more confidant. That makes you do better on tests 2) It gives you something to think about besides failing while you're getting dressed in the morning 3) It keeps you from thinking about how you look during the test 4) The sense of ritual can be comforting. There are some more but I think you get the idea. I only try to dress up nicely though, which involves more clothing than usual (to address your curve comment) For example I'm prolly going to wear a blouse and long skirt to my physics final today. For my CS final I wore dress pants with a long over coat/dress thing. Both are somewhat formal, neither is perticularly revealing.
anyway remember when i said "physics final TODAY" i've got to get going.
