I must say, it would be exceedingly interesting to see a professional theatre company undertake to present the historical events our students will be depicting. Well, that may be one point about amateur productions: they may tackle subjects first, but later, more professional productions can then more fully polish and develop.
I, too, have wondered about the level of commitment that several of my age-cohorts have chosen to undertake, but certainly the Professors have made it clear that of course schoolwork must come first.
Aside from the core subjects, I am attempting to achieve a NEWT in Arithmancy and Ancient Runes. I have been studying Dark Arts with Miss Professor Carrow as an independent study...it is a trifle irregular, a kind accommodation she has made for me (perhaps because of my position as Head Boy) and so it is unclear whether I will be allowed to attempt the NEWT in that subject, as I am not formally enrolled in the class. The Professor has forwarded a query for me as to whether I will be allowed to test to the NEWT examination committee, and we are awaiting their decision.
