text: Defense Against the Dark Arts: O\nPotions: O\nTransfiguration: O\nHistory of Magic: E\nCharms: O\nHerbology: E\nAncient Runes: E\nCare of Magical Creatures: O\n\nDefense Against the Dark Arts would be a high priority for me because I think that it is very important to know how to defend yourself. I would love the dueling club! Potions would be my favorite class because I find the possibilities utterly fascinating. I did quite well in chemistry, so I expect that I would excel in potions too. Transfiguration definitely appeals to me. It sounds like a difficult class, but I'd be determined to master it. The ability to transform objects, or myself would be worth the effort. History of Magic would be a challenge because Professor Binns drones on in such a mind-numbing way. I think he covers valuable information though, so I'd do my best to pay attention and take proper notes. Charms seems like an interesting class with practical application outside of the classroom, so I'm confident I'd do well in it. Herbology would be important to me, since I'd want to be familiar with all the plants I might potentially use in potions. I also excelled in Horticulture, although it wasn't of great interest to me, I seem to be a natural at it. Ancient Runes seems like it would be difficult, but I hate to fail at anything that I attempt so I'd study with a partner. Care of Magical Creatures would interest me because various creatures have usefulness, such as unicorns, whose horn and tail hair are used in potions. It would also be an opportunity to learn about creatures like the runespoor which I'd like to have as a pet. With Hagrid teaching I would be vary wary during classes, but I think Grubbly-Plank would be great.
