Chapter 208 Elective Course Recommendations

Despite the little wizards' reluctance, the final exam was carried out as scheduled.

For most subjects, the examination is divided into two parts: a theoretical examination and a practical examination.

In this year's exam, many professors set the required questions as part of the practical exam.

As a result, as the exam progressed, students gradually discovered that this year's final exam was actually much easier than previous years.

The afternoon after the exam, the sky over Hogwarts was blue.

A gentle breeze blew across the Black Lake, and the lake surface sparkled, reflecting the majestic outline of the castle and the surrounding mountains.

Except for the fifth and seventh graders, the school was full of smiling students.

"This year's exam was very easy. I didn't expect that the difficulty of the exam would be greatly reduced with the required questions."

"It's all thanks to the professors' thoughtfulness that they set the required test questions as practical test content. I practiced them regularly and only had to review the knowledge in the textbook before the test."

"There are also improvements to the homework for each subject. In the past, it was all essays, but this year there are many papers, all of which are key knowledge from the textbook. When reviewing according to the papers, I saved a lot of effort."

"Yes, I think that except for History of Magic, all other exams will be at least E (good). It is not a problem to get O (excellent) for these courses with practical exams."

"It looks like I'll be able to have an easier summer this year."

"Don't talk about so far. Now you can relax a little and go play Quidditch. Is there anyone who wants to join us?"

"Don't get too carried away. The fifth and seventh graders still have two weeks of exams. If you disturb them, be careful that the professor will scold you."

Like most students, Harry and his two friends also relax in their own unique way.

They changed out of their usual school uniforms and put on casual everyday clothes, chatting leisurely by the Black Lake.

Harry lay on his back on the grass, his arms behind his head, his eyes fixed on the clear sky. He took a deep breath, feeling the fresh air blowing on his face.

I could hear a few birds singing in the distance and from time to time I could hear the sound of the lake water gently lapping against the shore.

At this moment, he seemed to have completely thrown off the pressure of the exam, leaving only relaxation and comfort.

"Oh, it's finally over..." Ron stretched his body, supported his hands behind his back, and his face was full of relief.

He stretched out his legs, his eyes swept across the lake leisurely, and smiled with a sense of relief: "It's comfortable!"

Hermione sat next to them, smiling slightly and holding a book she had borrowed from the library.

But this time, she didn't rush to open it, but just quietly enjoyed this peaceful afternoon.

"Exams aren't that scary, are they?" She looked at Ron teasingly, "It's just that you always put it off until the last minute to start reviewing."

"Hey, I tried my best!" Ron rolled his eyes, but then laughed.

"Honestly, I was so nervous when Professor Snape checked the potion I brewed."

"I didn't do a very good job of controlling the heat, and the swelling potion I brewed is much worse than what you two usually brew."

"I was worried that Professor Snape would give me a P (poor), but unexpectedly, the professor still gave me an A (pass). Thank you Professor Snape!"

Ron stood up, picked up a small stone from the ground and threw it gently. The stone bounced a few times on the lake, causing a few tiny ripples.

"I was able to pass the exam like this. I really want to see if anyone will retake the exam. If so, I will definitely laugh at him to death."

Hearing this, Hermione rolled her eyes speechlessly.

This Ron forgot about his crying before the exam so quickly and started to get carried away again.

"Ron, you have to review with me next year. Don't leave it to the last minute again."

"I know, I know. Why talk about something so far ahead? I will work hard next year."

Harry tilted his head slightly and watched the interaction between Ron and Hermione, with a smile on his face. "When school starts, we will have to choose some elective courses. Which ones are you going to choose?"

"If possible, I would like to take all the courses." Hermione looked at the lake and said expectantly, "I think the elective courses are very interesting, and I don't want to miss any of them."

"Merlin!" Ron exclaimed, "I've chosen all of them. Do you know how many courses I have to take?"

"12 subjects. 12 subjects in total! How desperate are you?"

Harry added, "That makes 14 classes if you include Auror training and St. Mungo's training."

"Also, there will be a new elective course next school year - Alchemy. It's not realistic to complete all of them."

Hermione didn't say much about what the two said, but turned around and asked, "What courses are you going to choose?"

"Of course," Ron shouted, "the first thing to take is Muggle Studies. It's interesting and the exam is easy."

"Fred and George highly recommended it, and even Percy raved about it."

"For the second course, I will probably choose Divination. As for the reason, those who understand will know it."

"The other elective courses are a bit difficult. I need to think about whether to choose them or not."

"Harry, what do you think?"

"Well, I..." Harry sat up, looked at the shimmering lake, and said with a conflicted expression.

"To be honest, I'm a little confused and don't know what courses to choose."

"Harry," Hermione said concernedly, "why don't you ask Professor Swann? He will definitely be able to give you some sound advice."

"I asked," Harry smiled, "I'll repeat what the professor said and give you a reference."

"Professor Swan said that Divination is a class that tests one's magical talent. If you don't have 'Sight', you won't learn anything from this class."

"However, the exam for this course is relatively easy. As long as you make up a story that everything you see is misfortune, you can get a high score."

"If you must learn something about divination, the course of arithmetic divination would be very interesting."

It turned out to be the case.

Hermione nodded, lost in thought.

If Professor Swann says that you can't learn anything from divination classes, then you can just learn arithmetic divination.

"As for Alchemy," Harry paused, "Professor Swann said that if you want to take this course, you must also take Ancient Runes."

"If you have the energy, you'd better take the Care of Magical Creatures class."

"That means I have three electives, and I don't have the energy to take other classes."

Harry spoke freely, sharing the advice he had received from Sebastian without reservation.

After listening to what Harry said, Hermione made up her mind that she would give up the Divination class and take all other elective courses.

Ron was calm and still wanted to choose Muggle Studies and Divination. These easy elective courses were perfect for him.

The three of them were each thinking about different things, and it was very quiet for a while.

Harry took a deep breath and lay back down on the grass.

Forget it, don’t think about it anymore, just enjoy this wonderful time first.

As for the issue of elective courses, I will discuss it with Aunt Mia and the others during the holidays.
