Do you have a driver's license? If so, it should indicate on there that you wish to be an organ donor. You also should make sure your family and friends are aware of your intentions, just in case - that way, if something happens, when they contact your next of kin, your family will be able to let the doctors know your wishes. Good for you for being a donor!

Where did you register as a donor? Contact that place to find out what you should do. Also, I still recommend making your family aware of your wishes. They may be resistant, so this should not be just a casual conversation - be very clear and firm with them. Good luck on your test when the time comes!

Mine has it on my license. It has a red heart and donor underneath it. You could probably call the DMV in you area and have them look to see if you're listed as a donor or not.
