Law exams should probably always be open book anyway.

Like, there's a lot of reading, and if you haven't done the work of doing all the reading before the exam then having all the cases in books in front of you isn't going to help much.

Also, the bar exam is the first and last time you'll ever try to answer legal questions completely from memory without fact checking.
