B She prayed that I might succeed in my exams.

Correct Answer & Explanation
Option A
• This is an optative sentence expressing a wish. • The reporting verb 'said' changes to 'wished'. If 'God' was involved, 'prayed' would be used. • The conjunction 'that' is used. • 'May' changes to 'might'. • 'You' (second person) changes to 'I' (assuming the speaker is addressing the narrator/listener). 'Your' changes to 'my'.
