Seeking advice on the best way to study for a closed-book exam. I haven't taken one since 1996. Scary though Torts and Contracts were in the abstract, at least I had my security blanket (in the form of outline, checklist, and casebook) alongside to keep me from spooking completely. Civ Pro affords me no such luxury, which is unnerving if I think too hard about it.

I'm already in the process of making statutory flash cards, or at least will be after I get back from the gym this morning (need to blow off some steam). Thus far the only statutory section I can manage to remember is 28 USC 1404(a), on transfer of venue. There are a good dozen other numbers that will need to stay mapped to concepts in my mind. How are other folks managing this?
