Charms and History of Magic....

[alt_padma]

I'm sure I did fine on both, but on Charms, what did everyone else put down for Question Three?

I said 'Biting Hex.'

(And for History of Magic, did anyone else write about the Statute of Secrecy and why it was ultimately wiser to repeal it? Or did everyone write about the Goblin Rebellions for the essay?)

Linus, Morag, and Belinda and I are revising for Transfiguration tonight. I'm not fussed about Herbology, too much, but I have a little trouble with the mouse thing Professor Carrow showed us way back in October.

I did the first goblin rebellion because it was the only one that I knew for sure what order it came in.

I said stinging hex, why'd you think it was biting?

[alt_padma]

I thought about stinging, but I thought biting was more like the affect of an insect.

[alt_harry]

Because of the inkantaincantation?

[alt_padma]

Well, like a muski mosqueto flea. Or ants. They bite.

But then bees sting. So I dunno. I'm sure you won't get points off, or anything.

[alt_harry]

I hope not!

I don't remember which one was question three. Or what I put.

[alt_pansy]

I said stinging hex but once the exam was over, I wondered if that was right. However, I remember mum telling me once that on a test, the first answer you put, even if you aren't sure of it, is the one that you should stick with.

That's a good rule of thumb unless it's a teacher who likes trick questions.

[alt_pansy]

Yeah, there's nothing to help you manage professors like that.
