Quote from The Gestalt Prince on February 1, 2023, 1:12 amThis is a little tougher than I had anticipated:
- Astronomy: seems tedious to me, although it might be useful for astrology signs.
- Charms: pretty fun and wand-intensive.
- DADA: can be dangerous and sorta blends multiple disciplines relating to the Dark Arts.
- Herbology: the plants move around... nope.
- History of Magic: wouldn't want to study it, but it'd be easy to teach. Just have to open a history book and read off of it.
- Potions: as much as I love Snape, Potions would be a nightmare for me.
- Transfiguration: same as Potions, but with wand-waving.
Probably going with DADA

Quote from Heatherlly on February 1, 2023, 1:37 amWow, this is tough. I'm going to try ranking mine from most to least favorite.
- History of Magic. I know the professor is boring, but I am an absolute history nerd.
- Charms. Definitely sounds like the most fun out of the core classes.
- Potions. My attention to detail borders on obsessive, which I'm sure would help in this class.
- Transfiguration. I know it's one of the hardest classes, but imagine the potential.
- Herbology. While I'd be disturbed by the more dangerous plants, I do enjoy growing things.
- DADA. Depends on the teacher, but yeah, this one's a little scary.
- Astronomy. Rating this lowest mainly because it seems uninteresting. Also, it doesn't quite fit with the other classes… are we ever given a specific reason as to why it's even taught at Hogwarts?

- History of Magic: Without question. Especially anything to do with the Middle Ages. I would end up like Charles Dickens at one of his public readings: getting so worked up that I fell into a dead faint. That might keep the class awake.
- Astronomy: It may well be that Hogwarts students take astronomy classes for the astrological signs, as GS mentioned. This is a further stretch, but the physics of stars may be useful in a world where you can conjure up non-physical bodies such as a Patronus. Anyway, I love astrophysics, so I would enjoy this.
- Charms: I have no opinion on this.
- Potions: Meh. I would prefer the theory to the practice.
- Transfiguation: Could be cool.
- Defence Against the Dark Arts: Get Harry to do it.
