Chapter 766 NEWT (Page 12)
Worried that Connor would agree verbally but be dissatisfied in her heart, Kyle had been secretly observing her since the last Quidditch final.
But for two weeks, Kangna behaved normally, almost the same as usual. Only then did Kyle relax and concentrate on preparing for what he was going to do next.
In mid-June, on a very ordinary evening, everyone was sitting in the auditorium, having dinner and discussing their holiday plans.
Suddenly, the door was opened from the outside, and accompanied by Dumbledore, several elderly wizards walked in from the outside talking and laughing.
The leader is Professor Gsilda Marchiban, followed by Dumbledore, Professor Tofoday...
They are all old acquaintances. Anyone who has experienced OWL knows who they are and what it means for them to come to Hogwarts.
Final exam.
"Why is it so early this year!" Ron grabbed his hair next to the Gryffindor table and said in disbelief: "Isn't the exam time in a week? Or maybe I have lost a week of memory."
Harry stood there with his mouth open.
He hasn't reviewed all the courses yet... Well, or maybe he's just about to start reviewing. Why did he suddenly take the exam?
"The deformation hairpin only has the function of changing the shape. It's no problem. It's not for cheating."
Kyle didn't think it was strange, because every time there were people taking exams, they would try like crazy with the mentality of giving it a try, but they would leave a way out for themselves.
"Yeah, I haven't even read a page yet." Hermione sneered.
If he guessed correctly, this should be a soothing potion, but Kyle didn't know the specific use yet.
The developing mirror has a similar effect to the real waterfall in Gringotts. Although it is not as efficient, it can be regarded as the nemesis of Polyjuice Potion. If anyone wants to pretend to be someone else to take the exam, their true colors will be revealed in the mirror.
"That's right." Hermione said, "Only OWL and NEWT require people from the Wizarding Examination Authority to take charge. Apart from that, the exams for other grades are invigilated by various professors."
Kyle smelled it, and it smelled of mandrake and poisonous tentacle powder, mixed with some other herbs.
That's Professor Marchban.
He waved his hand, and the seventh-grade girl realized what she was doing and hurriedly walked in.
The girl was so frightened that she stood there at a loss not knowing what to do.
Kyle already knew this last year, and Cedric even shared his exam experience with him.
Hermione glanced at him and said, "If you continue to waste time like before, it won't matter how long you delay. You might as well take the exam tomorrow."
At first, he thought he was checking the Bafa Brain Refreshing Potion and Fuling Ling Potion, but he soon discovered that there were specialized professors here checking whether students had taken potions.
With just one glance, she caught a boy who drank a special potion.
There is also a teapot that is spitting out white smoke on the podium next to it.
It sounds pretty simple anyway.
The next day, the NEWT exam officially started.
As soon as a girl walked into the classroom, the speculum made a beeping sound. The sound did not stop until Professor Tofodi took off a bow hairpin on her head.
The magic looking glass can accurately detect the magic reaction in the surroundings, thereby determining whether anyone has brought in magic items.
"NEWT?" Ron blinked.
But judging from the happy expression on the boy's face, he should still be able to catch up.
……
Conversations like theirs also occurred elsewhere in the auditorium.
It was also at this time that people suddenly realized that Hogwarts had entered exam week.
As an old professor who has worked in the Examination Authority for nearly a hundred years, Gsilda March's potion knowledge is also very rich, even better than Snape and Slughorn.
"Don't say that, Hermione, I've already started reviewing." Ron took out a book, "Look, I just borrowed this from the library at noon."
Fortunately, Professor Marchban did not directly disqualify him from taking the exam. He just asked him to stand at the door of the classroom until the effect of the potion was over before he could enter.
Until Professor Tofty finished examining the hairpin.
As for how long he needs to wait and whether there is enough time for the exam, it all depends on how much he drinks.
Kyle followed her in.
"You haven't lost anything." Fortunately, at this moment, Hermione suddenly said: "They are here for the NEWT exam."
The castle has become much quieter than usual. Professors are guarding several key corridors. Everyone passing by will subconsciously lower their voices under the stern eyes of the professors.
Kyle had never experienced such strict inspections. There were only ten seventh-grade students in each classroom, but there were three professors in charge of invigilating the exams.
In addition, a large speculum is also equipped in the examination room.
The first day is the written test.
As the most stringent and cumbersome exam in the wizarding world, NEWT takes one week longer than other grades.
If you drink less, you still have a chance to answer the questions. If you drink too much and the effect of the potion does not disappear until the end of the exam, then the results of this written test will be invalidated.
He noticed that there was a mirror as high as the wall directly opposite the door.
He was a seventh-year boy from Ravenclaw. Although the drink he drank was not a Buffy Refreshing Potion, but a potion that could keep people calm, this kind of behavior was also not allowed.
To put it simply...don't be nervous, don't chant the wrong spell, and you'll get through it.
"In that case, we haven't reached exam time yet, right." Ron breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, the "Examination Law" stipulates that only those who have drunk Bafei's Brain Refreshing Potion and Fuling Ling Potion will have their exam results canceled directly. The penalties for other potions are quite ordinary.
This can be regarded as a minor disadvantage.
But this is a matter for the Wizarding Examination Authority, and Kyle is too lazy to meddle.
He walked into the classroom and sat down. There were originally ten people in the classroom, but now it became nine. There were parchments, quills and ink placed on the table. They were all prepared in advance. Students were not allowed to bring anything. Come in.
Professor Marchban patrolled the classroom a few more times before leaving and going elsewhere.
Twenty minutes later, the exam began.
The morning sun shone in through the window and fell warmly on the body, making Kyle feel a little sleepy.
He had already finished writing the test papers and waited until the end of the exam. He handed in the first paper and walked out of the classroom.
Just at this time, the sixth grade students also finished class. On the stairs leading to the foyer, he happened to meet a group of Gryffindors who had finished class.
Among them are Hermione, Ron and Harry.
"Kyle." Hermione waved and shouted from a distance.
She ran over quickly and asked slightly nervously: "How do you feel? Is the NEWT exam more difficult than the usual final exam?"
