Verb for 'luck'

If I got good grades with little study and preparation and no innately superior intellect, I would want to say that "I lucked through my exams".

However luck is not a verb. What can I say instead?

Edit:

This post has surprisingly spawned an interesting discussion about whether 'luck' is a verb or not? If it's not strictly a verb - but the context in which it is being passed off as a verb is clear and flows harmoniously with the rest of the sentence - whether that legitimised its use? Does anyone have any resources for this kind of topic?

Solution 1:

I fluked my exams.**

fluke VERB [WITH OBJECT] Achieve (something) by luck rather than skill.

‘I played very loose in contrast to the rest of the night's play and got ahead quite quickly thanks to fluking four of a kind early on.’ https://www.lexico.com/definition/fluke

** Not to be confused with "flunk"!

Solution 2:

Maybe you could use "lucked out" meaning

to be very lucky

[Cambridge English Dictionary]

It's considered a "phrasal verb with luck verb".

Might work for you.
