Chapter 288 Final Results
"What the hell..."
Harry muttered quietly, but did not dare to disturb the two people next to him.
At the end of last year's final, he and Ron happily complained about Hermione, persuading her not to care too much about her grades, let alone recalling her answers in a panic at the end of the exam.
But why did it change this year?
Why were those two guys so nervous after the exam?
Harry didn't dare to think about it anyway - the subjects in which he excelled only barely reached the O standard. Even with the extra help of Sirius in Transfiguration, it was really incomparable in front of Taylor.
But he really couldn't afford to offend these two friends, so he could only let the two of them think about what was wrong with his answers from time to time.
‘This year’s end of term was so boring… There weren’t even any troublemakers, and even Fred and George didn’t do anything out of the ordinary. '
The reason is very simple. This year's scores are too tight, and they are still far ahead - after the final scores are announced, the final scores will be added to determine which college can get it. to the Academy Cup.
In the words of the prefects - when you meet Professor Snape now, you should even breathe softly, well... well, in short, a certain professor may deduct a few points because Gryffindor is breathing.
'Such good sunshine has been wasted...'
He looked at the soft lawn beside the black lake and lay down directly, "You two, there is still some time for your grades to come down. Well, don't be so nervous, enjoy this rare leisure time."
Hermione looked like she wanted to curse, but Ron's mentality was calmer. He trotted over and lay next to Harry while asking. Another question.
"Are you going to stay with Sirius during the summer vacation?"
"There seems to be something wrong. Anyway, Sirius bought another house, near my aunt's house..." Harry I pulled my hair, and it seemed like something had climbed up just now.
"All in all, it can't be better than what's already good. I'll listen to Sirius's arrangements - how about coming over during the holidays? I persuaded Sirius to buy me a game console."
Harry's eyebrows twitched, "Dudley had one, and I loved it, but it was a pity that I never played it until it broke."
"Wow, that sounds cool! I'll definitely go," Ron answered without any hesitation, "And if you stay at home, I'm afraid there will be trouble this summer. Last time that Taylor went to my house, my mother liked it very much. If Percy invites him there again, then It’s really uncomfortable.”
“Taylor? But I haven’t seen him in the past few days. That guy is really strange. He doesn’t come out to play after the semester.”
< br>
"He seems to be...well, judging papers."
Ron said not very sure.
"Judging the paper?"
The distracted Hermione suddenly became energetic, "How is that possible? That is the paper for the final exam!"
"The homework is He graded it," Ron said with some hesitation, "Fred and George said that they saw Taylor grading homework when they were in solitary confinement, and there were more than one grade, Fred and George's homework was all He corrected it - this made them give up the idea of playing a prank on that guy."
"What I said..."
Harry laughed, and the question that had puzzled him for a long time was finally answered. He answered, "I said that the two of them have been talking about it but haven't done anything. It turns out that the homework was marked by someone else."
"The homework was marked by a fourth grader?"
Hermione's face Becoming a little pale.
She understands the value of this matter—her transformation skills may never surpass that of Taylor.
Although she had this doubt before the exam, now it is extremely confirmed. "Sirius even thought that Taylor would be able to overwhelm him with transfiguration before graduation. He always said that Professor McGonagall just brought people to the office to do some cooking."
Ha. Lee added the last blow, "So, the fourth grade homework is probably no longer a problem. Sirius guessed that Taylor is qualified to get the certificate."
"OWLs?"
"No, NEWTs."
Harry spread his hands, "Looking on the bright side, his other grades aren't that great, are they?"
——
Just there While Harry and the others were busy guessing, Andrew was in the office taking Bob and Patsy to tally the transcripts.
He already knows his results.
Astronomy E, Herbs O, Potions O, Transfiguration O, History of Magic A, Charms O, Defense Against the Dark Arts E.
'I don't know if I can barely get to O in Potions like last year. There should be some progress, because Herbology is indeed a bit of extra tutoring...'
'Astronomy has regressed a bit, but there's nothing we can do about it. Transfiguration and Magic The spell takes up too much time, and the difficulty of the questions has also increased. ’
‘Defense Against the Dark Arts, I have to rely on self-study to get E. There is no way. Professor Lockhart’s teaching talent is in language, and the subsequent ones are also fancy. ’
‘History of Magic...how should I put it, the foundation was not good in the first place, and the difficulty level was increased. It was really...a disaster. ’
‘The curse is really good...go find out the dean and see if there are any other mistakes. ’
‘Transfiguration, my name is written down in the first place, and I really didn’t lose any points. There’s nothing to say, as it should be. ’
He put down the overall report card - in addition to his own results that were worthy of joy, the school's overall results were also very good, which could be felt from Professor McGonagall's unabashed smile.
“Albus’s scholarship system is really easy to use. The overall performance has improved a lot, especially the number of top students. Although the difficulty of the questions has increased, the proportion of high scores has not decreased but increased.”
The professor looked at two years of transcripts and compared them line by line, "The scores in single subjects are even better. It seems that sometimes I really look too far and forget what is close."
"After all, it takes too long to realize the accumulation of knowledge, so the short-term goal of one school year seems too clear."
Andrew knew what the professor was referring to - it was just that the temptation brought by this little Galleons was unexpectedly great, making the professor feel that his previous goal of cultivating outstanding students was a bit too broad.
"Anyway, it's good to achieve the goal. Besides, the funds go to the Ministry of Magic's special projects, which even cost almost nothing. There's nothing to worry about."
He is a typical pragmatist-whatever is useful Why? If his talent for magic was greater than his talent for transfiguration, he would have embraced magic without hesitation in the first grade.
Of course, you cannot say this to the professor, it is too hurtful.
“Indeed, getting good grades is more important than anything else. Even if you use this method to improve your grades, it will be much better than knowing the importance of knowledge accumulation after they graduate. By then it’s too late. ."
Professor McGonagall smiled and put down the transcript, "Bob, you go and write it to the Ministry of Magic. Forget it. Taylor, go ahead and write a letter to the Logistics Department of the Ministry of Magic. Enclosed is the first letter. The list of first names and the invitation letter - the greenhouse is still new."
"Percy, hurry up, we are just writing the first name list, don't spend too much time."
Professor. , Percy is also responsible for the sixth grade performance statistics and the no-wand notice. Don't be so unkind!
