Hehe...we spent the ENTIRE SEMESTER on In personam jurisdiction. We spent maybe 3 classes on venue.
My CivPro teacher is notorious for giving you facts that fall in between all of the cases we've read, and we have to argue it every way imaginible. The tests take the entire 3.5 hours.
I've got that one Wednesday. I'm not *too* concerned, because its a 2 hour class. If I can get an A in legal writing (and I hope I did, I thought my memo rocked) that will balance out a possible C (OMG, if I get a C, it will be my first C ever) in CivPro

Ooh, sorry. I had the only Civ Pro professor in the USA who spent a ton of time on Due Process (hello, so we could review it in Con Law) and only about 5 minutes on Erie. Her favorite testing subjects were DP, Jursidiction, Venue, Standing, & lots of general questions about rules (esp. FRCP 12). Issue spotting was her thing.
I'm sure someone on here will have some advice for you though. Take comfort in the curve (at least until you get into upper level classes, then the curve sucks).
