... was pretty impressed so she was a little loud telling how pleased she was after I removed the spells on myself and the wall." "Did you transfigure yourself back into Jack?" asked Ron. "No, not this time. I decided to have a little more fun with it." "So, who did you become?" asked Hermione. "Before I tell you, Hermione, tell me what you did for extra points." "I just conjured a fancy but comfortable chair and sat in it. Any conjuring is above fifth year level so it got me the extra points." "Very nice and practical, Hermione. Congratulations!" "Yes, I am very practical but it sounds like your extra points were far more exciting than mine so spill it. Who did you become?" "Professor Marchbanks." "But…but…she was your examiner! You transfigured yourself into your own Transfiguration OWL examiner?" "Yes." Ron and Neville started laughing. Hermione was speechless. Harry explained more.

The practical was easy enough although Harry had to dodge a Fanged Geranium that tried to bite him when he was distracted. Defense Against the Dark Arts was the order of the day on Thursday. Harry was finished so quickly with the written that the examiner was double checking it to make sure he answered all the questions before allowing him to leave. Most of the rest of the students finished earlier than normal but no one was done as quickly as Harry. The ones who remained using up all the allotted time were notably not members of the DA. When Harry walked into his Defense practical exam he found himself assigned to Professor Tofty again. The old examiner started grinning as soon as he saw who was standing before him. "Good afternoon, Mr. Potter" he said with a smile. "Good afternoon, Professor Tofty." "Let's get the regular exam out of the way so we can get to the extra points. I am sure I will be impressed again." Harry smiled. Tofty took Harry through all the regular practical tests just like everyone else. As he expected Harry ...
