Everyday Players at Hogwarts..

Chapter 437 Course Selection
The next day, when the Ravenclaw students woke up, they were surprised to find something.

In the corner of the hall, set in a niche, was the Ravenclaw hourglass filled with sapphires, but a large part of the gem was missing from the lower half of the hourglass.

Although it is still more than any other house, the number of emeralds in Slytherin's hourglass is close to that of Ravenclaw's sapphires.

When they learned that the instigators of this incident were Harry, his girlfriend, and Ron, the three of them were unexpectedly not rejected by others.

Among them, Harry's influence in Hogwarts and the fact that most Ravenclaws don't care much about their house rankings are not the main factors.

After Filch became a wolf wizard, the night walks that were almost customary at Hogwarts (as long as they were not caught in the act) almost disappeared for a while.

But Filch's outstanding performance also aroused the rebellious psychology of Hogwarts students.

Almost most of the Hogwarts students, who were confident in their magic and rarely went out at night on weekdays, also started going out at night.

Then they were caught one by one and points were deducted.

Among them, Gryffindor and Slytherin are the majority.

Gryffindor is because they are adventurous and brave.

The reason for Slytherin is that it has the highest proportion of pure-blood students compared to the other three colleges.

They all knew more or less about the Squibs, the werewolves, and the incarnation of Fenrir.

And Filch was obviously a Squib.

They were already proud of their noble bloodline and obviously would not allow a Squib to stand out in Hogwarts because of lycanthropy and the magic in a ridiculous newspaper.

Therefore, in the eyes of most Hogwarts students, what Harry and his friends did was a recent trend, and most students wanted to try it.

Can understand.

However, this also leads to the point that the scores of the four houses are now: Gryffindor 17, Hufflepuff 35, Slytherin 49, Ravenclaw 58.

This is a score that has never been achieved since the school was founded.

The deans of the four colleges have almost given up and don't care much about this year's college divisions.

Plus, even though the final hadn't been held yet, it was clear that Ravenclaw had won the Quidditch Cup.

Taking into account the points added by the Champions Cup, even if Ravenclaw has deducted all the points recently, the House Cup may still belong to Ravenclaw.

However, Harry and the others didn't care too much about this.

Because according to common sense, course selection should have been delayed to today before the Easter holiday in March.

Because of this, second year students had no classes on Friday, the last working day of the school year (exams were in June).

They were all in the lounge or somewhere else thinking about what courses to take for their third year.

Harry and the others were in the Great Hall, right along with Draco.

As usual, Pansy, Crabbe, and Goyle did not come to the Ravenclaw table.

As for choosing courses, according to Draco, they would choose whatever he chose.

Not far away, because Luna was in class, Hermione, who thought she had Ryan all to herself, was complaining, "Why can't we just tick all the subjects like students in previous years?"

The culprit, Ryan, who made the Ministry of Magic afraid to use the time-turner again, said: “The courses we already have are compulsory courses, so don’t worry about them.

Divination class, Arithmancy, places too much emphasis on talent. There are only a handful of people with the gift of prophecy in Hogwarts. Hermione, you don't have to choose it.

As for Muggle Studies, its content is already outdated, and Riddle's Defense Against the Dark Arts is enough.

Ancient runes are useful - if you really want to become a master of magic rather than a user.

Even the worst teacher of magical creatures can hardly make it boring and it is very useful.”

In the original world line, Hagrid's magical creatures class became boring in Harry's fourth year. In fact, it was because Hagrid also took on the task of breeding new species and participating in the Goblet of Fire competition.

And it just so happens that the exploding-tailed skrewt really doesn't have any interesting elements.

"Then I won't take the three courses you mentioned." Hermione sweetly checked the new courses. Harry suddenly said, "I know which three courses I don't need to take: Divination, Arithmancy, and Muggle Studies."

"Wait, you listened to Ryan, didn't you?"

"Harry, you have a talent for prophecy, you must take the Divination class." Ron rolled his eyes.

"Also, you must take Muggle Studies."

"Muggle-born students will take this course to get good grades."

"The results of the OWLT (Ordinary Wizarding Level Test) and OWLT (Ultimate Wizarding Test) will also be better." Malfoy made suggestions from a utilitarian perspective.

"That's right. The future development of the wizarding world cannot be separated from the knowledge of the Muggle world." Ron suddenly thought.

When looking for a job in the wizarding world, the score on your diploma or certificate is very important.

If you want to choose a Muggle-related job, without taking Muggle Studies, even if you really know about Muggles, you will not be as good as those who have the score of this course on their certificate.

It's not like he's a Muggle-born wizard who can rely on his Muggle-born status to get a job.

"Since I can't choose 12 subjects, I'll just drop Arithmancy and Muggle Studies," Harry made up his mind.

"So which one should I remove?"

"I don't want to take 10 courses." Ron closed his eyes and randomly pointed his wand at the list, deciding which course he would take.

"Divination?"

"No, because of Lavender, I also want to take Divination class." Ron said bitterly.

"I don't want Muggle Studies anymore."

"Arithmancy?" Ron hesitated. He thought Lavender might choose it.

He finally decided to do the same as Harry and if he was going to take Arithmancy because of Lavender, he would just drop Ancient Magicals.

"Then I'll do the same as Harry." Draco shrugged.

He felt that at least he had Harry and the others with him.

And Muggle Studies?
Although Draco believed that knowledge of the Muggle world was indeed important, the Muggle Studies class at Hogwarts was indeed not that good.

Ron's father was self-taught.

"You don't have to take Arithmancy." Seamus at the Gryffindor table turned his head.

"During our Herbology class, Lavender had a quarrel with Ernie Macmillan from Hufflepuff."

"But maybe it wasn't a quarrel."

"They had an argument about which class was better, Divination or Arithmancy."

"You know, I don't need to tell you, that Lavender is from the Divination department. She and Parvati go to Professor Trelawney's Divination class almost every time they have free time."

"As far as I can see, there's no way she'll choose Arithmancy." Dean also turned around and said.

His father's friend Dedalus Diggle was also a member of the Order of the Phoenix.

"That's great. I don't have to cross out the ancient magic words."

"I was almost done with this course and my genius brain would have been lost!" Ron breathed a sigh of relief.

The people around looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

Dean and Seamus regretted what they said even more.

As a result, Ancient Magic will welcome students like Ron.
