Just so you know, proctoring does not automatically mean closed book. I believe some Straighterline exams are open book. Many people here think highly of SL because you can do well enough on all the little quizzes that the final becomes almost a formality. Anyway, you get used to ignoring the proctor pretty fast. Even some of my TESU exams were open book.
That said, open book does not result in less stress if it causes you to go into the exam poorly prepared. I can't think of anything more nerve wracking than struggling with an exam trying to search for every other answer.
