Some atheists have faith that nobody create and run the universe.
I also have faith that God exist and run the universe.
Religious people have faith in their dogmas and so on.
You're equivocating different connotations of faith, and it does your "point" no good. Are you really saying that your faith in your god is no stronger than the belief of a student that he'll do well in an exam?
If that's the case, I'd say firstly that you should look at the different meanings attached to "faith", and after that, perhaps you should look at the depth of the faith you claim to hold ... because let's face it, we've all known (or been, for that matter) students who have faith in being able to pass a test, only to learn upon grading that that faith was misplaced.
