Can I suggest your next video? Maybe do a list of several well-known characters who might have been sorted into the wrong house, or maybe some reasons you think students should be sorted in their 2nd, not 1st years)
It would've been cool if you mentioned the professors that appear in Hogwarts Legacy. Can you make a video comparing the professors from the Harry Potter books and the professors from Hogwarts Legacy?
That's what I thought too when reading the books as a high school student: how can they live, study freaking magic and in some cases aspire to high profile careers with just a primary school level English, general history, geography, literature, science, general biology and more?
Some level of chemistry as well. Even more of a reason, some regular classes would be needed for kids that are only brought up in the magical world and have no idea about how to live with muggles.
@@travisvanalst4698Yeah cause obviously they don't teach chemistry in elementary school. Harry started at 12 so I'm pretty sure Hogwarts is for students in 6th-12th grade, meaning all of these children only have education up to the 5th grade, which is very basic stuff, they wouldn't even know pre algebra! I'm assuming like he said in the video they have basic mandatory classes as well (English, math, and science, possibly muggle history as well) and it just isn't talked about because it isn't very exciting. Another thing that should definitely be a thing but isn't talked about is magic universities. How do they not have a college that teaches more advanced magic than highschool level stuff?
You missed Magical Literary Studies! 6th and 7 year students have the option of elective work in literature. Professor Arabella Vellum teaches a wide variety or literature, from muggle writing about magical subjects, to the canon of the Brothers Grimm, and the works of William Shakespeare.
To add an extra tidbit-The Ancient Runes teacher, Bathsheda Babbling, was the only known teacher killed during the Battle Of Hogwarts, next to Snape, obviously. (She's the body we see being covered by Trelawney and Padma Patil during the break in the battle, NOT Lavender, as many people think)
Astronomy, Arithmancy, Charm, Flying, Herbology, Potions, Transfiguration, Divination, Defense Against the dark arts, muggle studies, Runes, Care for magical creatures, apparition, history of magic, dark arts (during Voldemort reign), magical theory,.. these are the only ones coming to my mind. If i had to guess other electives that could be offered (or would be nice), it would be wandlore, duelling, study of ancient (old) magic, occlumency and legimency, wandless magic, alchemy beyond potions, first aid and magical wound/infliction healing (HP says he sound that lacking in DH), magical crafts (making broomsticks, snitches, wands, artefacts etc) , politics (they really need it)
@@GaidinDaishan probably either parents will teach them basic algebra at home. I know schools in America teaches student basic magic along with language and algebra until they are of age to go to magic schools
I would add as required subjects.: Ethics: Giving every being his due. Exploring: How does "Love magic" violate your partner and damage your relationship? When must you ask permission before helping someone and why? Optional:. Stoicism: See UA-cam. Theurgy, the study and practice of Divine Virtues to live in greater harmony with Nature. PREREQUISIT: ETHICS. CONFLICT MANAGEMENT. When is it ethical to use magical or other means to control another's behavior. When are you ethically obliged to assist another?
Liability and immaturity. To piggyback on the earlier liability answer immaturity of the kids would lead to it NOT being used for self defense at some point along any age group. Plus there's additional worries at different age groups - all filter down to liability.
I went to a small all girls high school and they brought in a teacher one year who hosted a mini class/ demonstration one day for us on basic self defense. that was informative
I don't know if it counts, but Hogwarts did a school play at least once. I don't remember when though. It the "The Fountain of Fair Fortune" and Professor Kettleburn cast an ashwinder to play the worm, resulting in the Great Hall burning down.
Precisely. It was mentioned in the Tales Of Beedle and The Bard, Fountain of Fair Fortune. They tried using that book to make a play but it backfired due to Kettleburn casting an ash winder to play the worm, which caused the Great Hall to burn and a bunch of ashwinder eggs to spawn. Lucky for Slughorn, I suppose, since these eggs can be frozen and used in Potions such as Love potions. It was either during Dippet's time or Dumbledore's, I can't remember. I believe it was during the latter's time.
My personal headcannon is that there is a (or multiple) magical primary school that pure blood witches and wizards attend to learn things like writing and reading, basic math, and basic history. Half blood witch and wizards also have the choice to go there but they also have the option of going to muggle school. It would explain why a lot of the pure bloods know little to nothing about how the muggle world works.
Shame the movies didnt cover what REALLY happened when one gets "splinched" in Apparition. (usually involves leaving a limb behind because the determination wasn't completely there)
I always thought it was so funny that Ron failed his apparition exam because he left an eyebrow behind…what a strange thing to see just left lying on the floor somewhere! 😅
I believe that after Hogwarts (if you'd like to become a Healer) and after passing your Newts in the needed subjects, you become an apprentice and learn healing Charms. Also, during the 7 years at Hogwarts, I'm sure healing/repairing charms are learned.
I wish they mentioned more wizarding sports in the books. I was imagining there would be a sport called Air Sync. Sort of like Syncrhonized swimming, only on brooms and in the air rather than in the water. I imagined mostly girls would go in for this and they would put long feathery ribbons on the ends of their brooms so while a team of at least 12 girls is in the air flying in interestingly pretty patterns, the ribbons would make lots of really pretty swirls.
You actually have a point there. Kids would love to learn astrology, care for animal creatures, herbology arts, music, self-defense, math related to real life contexts, literature, history...it'd be so awesome.
You don’t need to be 17 to learn how to apperate you need to have your 17th birthday before the next school year as both Harry and Neville’s birthday happens during the summer
@@simonopps harry didn’t take his test because his 17th birthday was the same day as Bill and Flures wedding and they were a bit occupied on that day so I am sure he took his later and Ron didn’t pass his test either
@@TheSonofrussHarry’s birthday was one day before Bill and Fleur’s wedding. Harry was saying, “only 4 days until we can get out of here (the burrow) and start hunting the horcruxes” but Ron said, “5 days, they’ll kill us if we miss it (the wedding)”
@@ryujins.smile. yeah no time to take the test either way and Ron was going to take his at the same time of the three of them Hermione was the only one that passed the test
The Muggle study described in this video is very different to the one Hermoine took and was dissatisfied with, which just amounted to watching Muggle movies which students took to slack off.
My perfect curriculum: -Transfiguration (the best subject), -Charm, -Potions, -Alchemy, -Herbology, -Magical Theory, -History of Magic, -Ancient Studies, -Art, -Flying,
Muggle studies, Transfiguration, charms, divination, potions, runes, defense against the dark arts, care of magical creatures, history of magic, astronomy… apparition… herbology…. I only know 12!
From the third year onwards, additional elective subjects can be taken: Care of magical creatures Ancient runes Arithmancy Divination Muggle studies Was there information beforehand about which jobs require what or only in the 5th year?
Wow, I didn't know about a lot of these subjects. Ghoul Studies, Field studies, Xylomancy. These must be on Pottermore. I don't remember them ever being mentioned in the books. I love the fact that Muggle Art and Music are taught at Hogwarts. I'm guessing though that Muggle Music stops at Rock N Roll considering its reliance on electric guitars, amps and synthesizers.
What I don't get though is why Silas, neglected to mention the names of who it is that teaches half of the subjects he mentioned, such as Muggle Music for example? Speaking of teachers/professors, I know Warwick Davies played many characters in the films, Flitwick at Hogwarts who taught charms, but also a younger teacher with short black hair, glasses & a moustache, what was the subject he taught, & what's his name, as I swear in one of the films I saw him conducting a choir?
@@rickmcarthur67the choir guy was flitwick. There just wasn't enough for him to do in prisoner, but they still wanted him there, so they made the choir conductor be flitwick
@@KoniXyz Yeah, that I don't get, as Flitwick didn't suddenly drink a youth potion in the book of 'Prisoner', did he? Not that I can recall! 😕🤔🧐 Anyway, it still doesn't help with the first part of my last message, about names of Professors that were neglected on the video!
@@Mayo201991 Oh sorry. I'm old school (or maybe just old). I still call the Wizarding World of Harry Potter the name of the old website which was Pottermore. There are just less letters to type. :) Anyhoo, my bad. Sorry for the confusion.
I believe in the first book (and or movie) Vernon did talk about Smelting (Private School) for Dudley and "public School" for Harry, I could be wrong though. In fact I believe Dudley showed off his new uniform. Where Harry wondered where he was to go to school.
Excellent video! I really loved all the quality visuals that related perfectly to each subject. Thank You for keeping the magical world alive and interesting.
I think wandmakers study xylomancy as a perquisite to wandlore. I'm surprised wand lore is not a subject at Hogwarts. Maybe there is part of it studied in ancient studies or another subject.
Before watching the video, here's my attempt at remembering all 25 subjects: - Arithmancy - Study of Ancient Runes - Beasts/Study of Magical Creatures - Transfiguration - Charms - Potions - Defence Against the Dark Arts - Divination - Astronomy - Muggle Studies - Flying (?) Not sure if it counts - Alchemy I must be missing some really obvious ones, lol. I could only remember 12 out of 25.
0:35 Lemme try. •Arithmancy •DADA •Transfiguration •Muggle Studies •Muggle Art •Muggle Music •COMC •Potions •History of Magic •Ancient Runes or smth?- •Charms That's my best.
How does Hogwarts not have a Vulgar Latin class? All the spells are some bastardization of Latin. It seems like if you want to do magic in Harry Potter, learning Latin is where you should start.
Favourite podcast episode yet! Nicely done - it would be interesting to consider what subjects you would choose were you at Hogwarts. Beside the usuals, I'd be keen on Flying, Care of Magical Creatures, Transfiguration, Field Studies, Ancient Studies, and Apparition. How many elective subjects can you choose along with the core subjects? Would it be possible to list all 25 subjects below? Thanks, and keep up the great work!
Let's try from the top of my head. 1. Charms 2. Defence against the dark arts 3. History of magic 4. Muggle studies 5. Devination 6. Flying class in year 1 7. Herbology 8. Potions 9. Study of magical creatures 10. Ancient runes 11. Arithmancy 12. Astronomy 13. Transfiguration 14. Apparation in year 6 15. Duelling class if this counts 16. ?
Just a slight correction on apparition: At least in the book, apparition is taught to all 6th years at the same time. It's taking the test that is limmitted by your age. (If the website got this wrong, then that's unfortunate)...
Correct. Only Ron and Hermonie were able to take the test out of 3. Ron failed it but Hermonie passed, as i am pretty sure was mentioned in the 6th book.
This is before watching: Transfiguration C.O.M.C. D.A.D.A Potions Herbology Flying History of Magic Charms Muggle Studies Arithmancy Divination Astronomy Ancient Runes Apparation (Does that one count?) Dueling (Not sure if that one counts either.) That's all I've got.
It seems like language classes would be vital for spell creation. Latin turns up so often in spells - surely it would be an important class. In earlier times, students might have learned Latin and Greek in Muggle school, but that is rare now.
Harry would have made a fantastic defence against the dark arts professor. I have always felt that the patronus charm was one of the most useful spells in the entire series. The patronus in my opinion should be the first charm you learn in DADA. The patronus charm is an extremely valuable spell especially as you progress through your years at hogwarts. The later into your stay in the school the more time you will spend in the forbidden forest.
Astronomy is likely the one topic taught in the school that us Muggles have over on the wizarding world. Without the telescope, space probes and advanced tech we utilise to find such objects, would the magical community have been aware of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, the asteroids, distant comets, supernova and upcoming solar and lunar eclipses? Eclipses, maybe, but it's very unlikely their knowledge of the solar system was extended much beyond Saturn. Score one for the Muggles.
I got Astronomy Arithmancy Alchemy Care of magical creatures Herbology Potions Transfiguration History of magic Divination Defense against the dark arts Charms Flying Muggle studies Ruins Healing Electives: Dueling Qudidch
Defence against the dark arts, transfiguration, charms, potions, herbology, care of magical creatures, ancient ruins, arithmancy, divination, history of magic, astronomy, muggle studies, flying,
Arithmancy,Astronomy, charms, DADA, Divination, Flying lessons, Herbology, History of magic, potions, Muggle studies, Transfiguration, Care of Magical creatures,
Awesome. I didn't know there were so many. I recall that there are five basic classes. There is Herbology, Transfiguration, Potions and DADA. DADA is the one with the most emphasis in the movies. If there is a new character to teach the school, theier is the DADA class to show them off. All the teachers were important to the plot of of the respective book. Slughorn was a new potions teacher in Half-Blood Prince, and he was also important. The other four classes are taught by head of house, and there is an elemental connection. That was really cool. Hufflepuff and Herboloy have earth. Gryffindor and Transfiguration have fire. Slytherin and Potions have water. Ravenclaw and Charms have air. I remember Hogwarts having flying on the side. Harry excelled so well in his first year, he became a Quiddich player. I vaguely remember electives. There was divination and care of the magical creatures class. Then this video gave a lot more. Some of them I forgotten, because they are minor. There are things like History, Apparition and Muggle Studies. There are even some I never heard of before. I found it so odd that there was astonomy class. Astronomy is a science, not a magic. Did Rowling mean astrology? That woul fit so much better. It is really easy to mix the two up, because the words sound similar. "Ology" is a common suffix for sciences. I think it would make more sense if the science was called astrology, and the magic is called astomancy. I made up the word astromancy. It means "star prophecy", which is a good description of the magic. If Hogwarts students are going to go star gazing for a class, they better learn how to do horscopes and zodiac signs. The science has more to do with rockets and sattelites. Astrology horoscopes could fit in divination. However I think they are more appropriate for the star class. Divination can get really complicated in a hurry. Trelawny seems a bit frazzled as is. It would be nice to releave some of her burden. She can ignore the stars entirely. Then she can focus more on other methods like Tarot. Heck there are even other classes that are just other forms of divination. There is arithmacy, runes and the twig one. I hope Hogwarts never gets a class on reading guts. That is disgusting.
Arithmancy and Alchemy should be mandatory subjects in magical schools. Honestly, the shear weight of math in spell creation and casting, or charm making, any magical formation you are wielding should include an understanding of the calculations needed to cast and throw that magic out there!! As for Alchemy, potions is essentially just that isn't it?
Just let those wizards have a bit of fun. It's bad enough that we muggles have to go trough the torture called arithmancy and maths. I really wish I was magical and didn't have to take that subject lol.
I expect History of Magic to the closest to any real world class I've taken. Ever history class i had to take was lazily taught to the book (yaknow before teachers started complaining about teaching-to-a-test) and they never got to the end of the syllabus before the semester ran out of time. Just like Bins's lessons never reached the recent past, because he uhhhh ran out of ... time.
What! They don't teach the construction of magical objects? There are so many objects other than say paintings to discuss but I am thinking particularly of wands and broomsticks. How for example do you construct that book that chomps through things, the lute that plays automatically? Is this merely Charms - the creation of new properties on an object?
I would think that someone skilled in Charms would be able to enchant magical objects as they desire. For specialized branches of construction such as wand making or goblin silver work, you probably would have to apprentice with someone
Herbology, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Charms Transfiguration, flying, Arithmancy, Divination, Potions, Care of Magical Creatures, Alchemy(6th and 7th yearonly), astronmy, 😊
my guess of subjects dada comc herbology charms transfiguration flying astronomy divination arithmancy muggle studies ancient runes apparation might not be a class they probably do english and other european languages
I want to know how single teachers can teach every grade level of a single subject to every house in the school? For example, McGonagall teaches transfiguration for 7 years of students. If her classes each contain 2 houses that would mean she's teaching 14 separate classes. I'm not sure how many times a week a student has a subject, but the numbers don't add up in my head unless she has a time turner to be in 2 places st once.
It's funny, because I was thinking the same thing a couple of months ago. I used Flitwick as my example because he's my favourite teacher. Not only do the numbers for lessons not add up, but also these teachers are expected to be the head of their given house, and effectively alo-parent 70 students… The average number of students per house at Hogwarts. It's not really all that surprising, considering this load, that Hogwarts has a serious problem with pastoral care for students. There is a distinct and decided lack of pastoral care for students, and I would say that the teachers themselves would be horribly overworked. For example, getting back to Flitwick is my example, he strikes me as a very compassionate and caring person, but with a workload that has heaped on him, he wouldn't most likely no doubt struggle with wanting to give his Raven claws the pastoral care he feels they need but not be able to do so because he's human. I think that's why we see so many students be left to their own devices when frankly an adult should have stepped in. I would say personally, that Hogwarts would be a very toxic environment both for learning and for faculty to work in. Pardon any mistakes I have made here, I am using a voice dictate to do this.
I think that that is why there are entire corridors dedicated to one subject, and so many empty classrooms. I think that at some point there were multiple teachers per subject, but not anymore. Probably had something to do with the war, either that, or budget cuts.
@@rebeccastandley8573gruesome if you think that grindelwald and voldemort had such a high bodycount that it would cripple hogwarts for decades. Given that the teachers are some of the most powerfull wizards of their time i wonder how many of them killed each other during these events. As for the subjects: they teach the whole day. 5 days per week. So they could have time for it. Also not every class is full (since students can choose their subjects) so maybe for some classes they put 3 or 4 houses together. The other teachers might help out here and there. Who knows. It can work. But surely most house teachers would be overworked and would barely have their own life outside of it.
@@uwesca6263 I'm not saying that they killed people who where already teachers, although I'm sure that did happen on occasion. I think that combined they killed and scared off people who would have become teachers. We know that Voldemort alone killed thousands of people. Also if you account for not just the deaths, but that people are less likely to want to raise a baby in that environment, then it starts to add up. And that's just the wizarding wars, we know that the wizards fought in and were affected by the muggle world wars. And you may be thinking what about the baby boom? But remember that right after the muggle war, was a wizard war, the wizarding baby boom would have been delayed, and then all of those new wiz boomers had to turn around and fight Voldemort.
They switch days, if I remember correctly. For example, students might have Transfiguration on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for an hour, and Potions on Tuesdays and Thursdays for an hour and a half. That way, all classes fit, and it’s closer to 7/8 classes a day. Still a really packed schedule, though.
They learn all maths and english etc at home before theyre 11. Wizards and witches have greater mental capacity, not to say theyre more intelligent but they can absorb and store more information and learn more quickly.
All I can remember: DADA, Charms, Astronomy, Transfiguration, Arithmancy, Potions, Herbology, Divination, Care of magical creatures, and Muggle studies. EDIT: I can't believe I missed history of magic. Also, I probably should've got runes
If Defense Against the Dark Arts is "DADA." The I guess "MOMA" would be the Militarization Of the Magical Arts.. right? Any "Brother" or "Sister" classes? 😅😋
Also, maybe: Division(of)/Defensive Occult (against the) Ghastly Charm Arming for Tough Security They were thought of fast. I didn’t have much time to work on it
For their primary teaching, I suppose a very basic education is far enough. Only basic mathematics is necessary, no need for science (we saw that pure wizards didn't knew what electricity was), and of course learning to read... and we may assume that this is provided by their parents or a tutor, since, and this is very overlooked, some students (such as Crabb and Goyle) have dificulties to read (and so write) properly, but it is hard to guess how it is evaluated during exaams (or if it is anyway).
apparition class is not exclusive to 17 and older. i believe its exclusive to 6 th years that either are or will turn 17 at the end of the 12 week course and take the test at the end which *is for 17 years or older*. Harry was (being in his 6th year) 16 when he learned to apparate and at the time of the test Hermione and Ron (Ron already being 17. I dont believe it was confirmed when Hermione became of age) were able to take the test except for Harry. “Harry who would not be 17 for another four months could not take the test whether ready or not”. Despite not being 17 Harry was able to learn how to apparate but couldnot take the test until he turned 17 in july
@@Liutgard aye already of age to do the test. Ron’s was in march so became of age just on time for the test. Harry again being 16 took the lessons but never did the test. so i guess all of his apparitions in deathly hallows were illegal when he apparated (not including side along apparition)
Charms, Transfiguration, D.A.D.A, Herbology, Potions, Care of Magical Creatures, Arithmancy, Ancient Runes, Muggle Studies, History of Magic, Magical Theory, Astronomy, Divination, Broomstick Flight....is music class a thing? and Dark Arts, (During Snape's Headmastership)...So some 14-16 subjects that I can think of :S
Yes; music and art come to mind as I would want to teach the children what they are doing before anything else. This would necessarily involve a sound theoretical foundation.
I like the idea that Witches and Wizards don't recieve a high-school level education, and all lack knowledge on advanced biology or arithmetic. They hardly need it, regardless, as magic can solve most of the problems. It could explain why the wizarding world is so... childish (beyond the fact that they're children's books) and gives muggles a slight leg up.
History of magic, divination, transfiguration, defence against the dark arts, apparition, charms, potions, astronomy, magic theory, dark arts, care for magical creatures, herbology, alchemy, flying, dualing, muggle studies, that's all I know right now🙃
I actually don't even particularly care for the Wizarding world i just like all fantasy content and this is what's available, I don't dislike it and it played a big part in my childhood and I enjoy it but like thwre is a big world of fantasy I love to get to deep dive into any fantasy setting I let the passion of others for individual subjects of fantasy and just come along for the ride
Really don't get why music and art are divided, given you rather need to know basic art and music before you start adding magic to it. Also rather weird field studies is new given that sounds like a course you'd want everybody planning to try and be an auror and magical beast caretaker to take.
I'm not sure if they said in the book I just moved and lost my copy and no libraries near me but when the death eater set hagrids hut on fire I know fang was inside did fang escape or did fang die in the fire? I like to think he escaped but don't remember seeing fang after that point
You could in fact take the apparition course even if you were not 17 yo as long as your birthday's August 31 at the latest. That's how Harry could participate.
is there any info on magic higher education? i feel like i would want to learn everything that all of these classes have to offer but i don’t think its possible to take everything in your 7 years at hogwarts.
Feels like the likely answer is the wizard world still uses an apprentice program where you learn more specific magic based on your job, and then its up to independent study if what you're interested in isn't relevant to your job.
Do magical children learn reading, spelling and math from homeschooling? Or in a magical elementary school? Do you know anything about what is taught in other school like Uagadan Wizarding School.
Regional magicks SHOULD be covered. A survey course sampling surviving Shamanic theories and practice. In addition to Voudon, some introduction to Native American theories and rites.
Thanks for this and other videos. I'm learning a lot more about the Harry Potter universe than the movies offered. I never read the books, and I'm not sure I will.
There is so much info missing from the movies. I read the books when they all came out and I love coming back to these videos because I have definitely forgotten a lot of details
The movies do what they can with their allotted timeframe, but the books are rich with the subtle details. The books better describe relationships between the various people while, in the movies, whole subplots are completely missing. One thing that was included in the movies that totally pissed me off was when The Burrow burned & there was that fight with the Death eaters. That never happened in the books. It was totally unnecessary & wasted time that could've been used to further another scenario. I never understood why it was included.
If u don't plan to ever read the books, don't ever presume you know everything about the Wizarding World. Harry Potter films apart from the first two, are pretty poor. The movies causes a lot of plot holes, gives no backstories on important characters, and has done a lot of character assissination of a lot of great characters, biggest of them, The Golden Trio themselves.
@@flyonthewall8122The books also have ORIGINAL Golden trio, while the moves did the most brutal character assissination of them, especially to Ron Weasley.
@@RabiyaRavenclaw Agreed. It was as if they wanted to downplay the only one of the three who had been raised in the Wizarding world. He was reduced to a supporting character & not a nice one at that.
Charms, Astronomy, Herbology, Defence Against the Dark Arts, History of Magic, Runes, Divination, Care of Magical Creatures, Muggle Studies, Transfiguration, Flying and Potions… That’s nowhere near 25
25? I doubt it but: 1. History of magic 2. Broom Flight - PE? 3. Care of Magical Creatures 4. Astronomy 5. Astrology 6. Potions 7. Defense Against the Dark Arts 8. Muggle Studies 9. Divination 10. Arthimancy 11. Charms 12. Transfiguration 13. Ancient Runes 14. Dueling Club? ....Library Studies ? ....Photography? O man I didn't get very far. Lol
I would give anything to be reborn into that world with all my muggle knowledge and go to Hogwarts as kid. I think I would end up being like Hermione and needing a time turner to be able to attend all the classes I sign up for.
You forgot about GEOGRAPHY! In the wizarding world, the vast majority of wizards seem to be extremely knowledgeable about world and local geography. Unless English and Scottish primary school is vastly more concentrated on this subject than other countries, I suspect that Hogwarts must have some sort of education system teaching the kids about other countries. It is not as if that kind of knowledge has been suggested to get into their minds by osmosis.

The idea of mixing in muggle schooling into magical schooling definitely makes sense, because you’d definitely need SOME level of math to make potions
That's what I thought too when reading the books as a high school student: how can they live, study freaking magic and in some cases aspire to high profile careers with just a primary school level English, general history, geography, literature, science, general biology and more?
Some level of chemistry as well. Even more of a reason, some regular classes would be needed for kids that are only brought up in the magical world and have no idea about how to live with muggles.
@@travisvanalst4698Yeah cause obviously they don't teach chemistry in elementary school. Harry started at 12 so I'm pretty sure Hogwarts is for students in 6th-12th grade, meaning all of these children only have education up to the 5th grade, which is very basic stuff, they wouldn't even know pre algebra! I'm assuming like he said in the video they have basic mandatory classes as well (English, math, and science, possibly muggle history as well) and it just isn't talked about because it isn't very exciting. Another thing that should definitely be a thing but isn't talked about is magic universities. How do they not have a college that teaches more advanced magic than highschool level stuff?
You missed Magical Literary Studies! 6th and 7 year students have the option of elective work in literature. Professor Arabella Vellum teaches a wide variety or literature, from muggle writing about magical subjects, to the canon of the Brothers Grimm, and the works of William Shakespeare.
Add MEDITATIONS of Marcus Aurelius, other Stoic writings, Pythagorean and Orphic texts.
Don’t forget Flatulence Studies. Professor Farticus Pufflepants teaches it in the classroom in the Asswind Tower.
um you also missed Freakology: The Study of Magical Creatures in the Bedroom !!!! Taught by Professor Furryren.
To add an extra tidbit-The Ancient Runes teacher, Bathsheda Babbling, was the only known teacher killed during the Battle Of Hogwarts, next to Snape, obviously. (She's the body we see being covered by Trelawney and Padma Patil during the break in the battle, NOT Lavender, as many people think)

I'm wondering how students learn about sex and other biology topics.
Or how they learn to add and multiply.
@@GaidinDaishan probably either parents will teach them basic algebra at home. I know schools in America teaches student basic magic along with language and algebra until they are of age to go to magic schools
The snuggle struggle curse
What would be in occlumency and leniency and alchemy beyond potions
I would add as required subjects.:
Ethics: Giving every being his due. Exploring: How does "Love magic" violate your partner and damage your relationship? When must you ask permission before helping someone and why?
Optional:.
Stoicism: See UA-cam.
Theurgy, the study and practice of Divine Virtues to live in greater harmony with Nature. PREREQUISIT: ETHICS.
CONFLICT MANAGEMENT. When is it ethical to use magical or other means to control another's behavior.
When are you ethically obliged to assist another?
2:21 I honestly can't understand why basic self-defense isn't a part of every real world school's curriculum.
Then everybody will be equally competent thus resetting the norm leaving the same problem...
Liability . My school didn't want to get sued. So no wrestling or boxing or karate
For girls, start in first grade and continue through high school.
Boys will learn better manners.
Liability and immaturity. To piggyback on the earlier liability answer immaturity of the kids would lead to it NOT being used for self defense at some point along any age group. Plus there's additional worries at different age groups - all filter down to liability.
I went to a small all girls high school and they brought in a teacher one year who hosted a mini class/ demonstration one day for us on basic self defense. that was informative
I don't know if it counts, but Hogwarts did a school play at least once. I don't remember when though. It the "The Fountain of Fair Fortune" and Professor Kettleburn cast an ashwinder to play the worm, resulting in the Great Hall burning down.
This was mentioned in the footnotes of the story in Tales of Beedle the Bard
@@dhritisharma4465 And one of the Kindle-exclusive books... I don't remember which one thought.
Precisely. It was mentioned in the Tales Of Beedle and The Bard, Fountain of Fair Fortune. They tried using that book to make a play but it backfired due to Kettleburn casting an ash winder to play the worm, which caused the Great Hall to burn and a bunch of ashwinder eggs to spawn. Lucky for Slughorn, I suppose, since these eggs can be frozen and used in Potions such as Love potions. It was either during Dippet's time or Dumbledore's, I can't remember. I believe it was during the latter's time.
No they didn't
My personal headcannon is that there is a (or multiple) magical primary school that pure blood witches and wizards attend to learn things like writing and reading, basic math, and basic history. Half blood witch and wizards also have the choice to go there but they also have the option of going to muggle school. It would explain why a lot of the pure bloods know little to nothing about how the muggle world works.
Shame the movies didnt cover what REALLY happened when one gets "splinched" in Apparition. (usually involves leaving a limb behind because the determination wasn't completely there)
The movies didn’t cover that
I always thought it was so funny that Ron failed his apparition exam because he left an eyebrow behind…what a strange thing to see just left lying on the floor somewhere! 😅
Pity they don’t have a first aid or healing subject. To learn restorative magic. That would be handy.
I believe that after Hogwarts (if you'd like to become a Healer) and after passing your Newts in the needed subjects, you become an apprentice and learn healing Charms. Also, during the 7 years at Hogwarts, I'm sure healing/repairing charms are learned.
It's under charms
I wish they mentioned more wizarding sports in the books.
I was imagining there would be a sport called Air Sync.
Sort of like Syncrhonized swimming, only on brooms and in the air rather than in the water. I imagined mostly girls would go in for this and they would put long feathery ribbons on the ends of their brooms so while a team of at least 12 girls is in the air flying in interestingly pretty patterns, the ribbons would make lots of really pretty swirls.
Imagine a school that provided everything that Hogwarts offers without any actual magic. It would STILL be the best school in the world.
But what would be the point of teaching non-existent fantasy
@@garrylarry890 somewhere you apparently missed the part about no magic...you need a more specialized school I think.
@@Keef_DGAFI love how they didn’t give you a response, knowing you were right 😂😂😂
You actually have a point there. Kids would love to learn astrology, care for animal creatures, herbology arts, music, self-defense, math related to real life contexts, literature, history...it'd be so awesome.
You don’t need to be 17 to learn how to apperate you need to have your 17th birthday before the next school year as both Harry and Neville’s birthday happens during the summer
Also not right: You need to be seventeen to take the exam. Harry, Malfoy, Neville and others had their exam in the summer when they turned 17.

The Muggle study described in this video is very different to the one Hermoine took and was dissatisfied with, which just amounted to watching Muggle movies which students took to slack off.
My perfect curriculum:
-Transfiguration (the best subject),
-Charm,
-Potions,
-Alchemy,
-Herbology,
-Magical Theory,
-History of Magic,
-Ancient Studies,
-Art,
-Flying,
Muggle studies, Transfiguration, charms, divination, potions, runes, defense against the dark arts, care of magical creatures, history of magic, astronomy… apparition… herbology…. I only know 12!
From the third year onwards, additional elective subjects can be taken: Care of magical creatures Ancient runes Arithmancy Divination Muggle studies Was there information beforehand about which jobs require what or only in the 5th year?
Wow, I didn't know about a lot of these subjects. Ghoul Studies, Field studies, Xylomancy. These must be on Pottermore. I don't remember them ever being mentioned in the books. I love the fact that Muggle Art and Music are taught at Hogwarts. I'm guessing though that Muggle Music stops at Rock N Roll considering its reliance on electric guitars, amps and synthesizers.
What I don't get though is why Silas, neglected to mention the names of who it is that teaches half of the subjects he mentioned, such as Muggle Music for example? Speaking of teachers/professors, I know Warwick Davies played many characters in the films, Flitwick at Hogwarts who taught charms, but also a younger teacher with short black hair, glasses & a moustache, what was the subject he taught, & what's his name, as I swear in one of the films I saw him conducting a choir?
@@rickmcarthur67the choir guy was flitwick. There just wasn't enough for him to do in prisoner, but they still wanted him there, so they made the choir conductor be flitwick
What's Pottermore?
@@KoniXyz Yeah, that I don't get, as Flitwick didn't suddenly drink a youth potion in the book of 'Prisoner', did he? Not that I can recall! 😕🤔🧐 Anyway, it still doesn't help with the first part of my last message, about names of Professors that were neglected on the video!
@@Mayo201991 Oh sorry. I'm old school (or maybe just old). I still call the Wizarding World of Harry Potter the name of the old website which was Pottermore. There are just less letters to type. :) Anyhoo, my bad. Sorry for the confusion.
I believe in the first book (and or movie) Vernon did talk about Smelting (Private School) for Dudley and "public School" for Harry, I could be wrong though. In fact I believe Dudley showed off his new uniform. Where Harry wondered where he was to go to school.
He did Dudley even said to Harry to scare him that old kids were going to shove his head in a toilet in public school.
there were deleted scenes in the movie and the book talks about both.
Excellent video! I really loved all the quality visuals that related perfectly to each subject. Thank You for keeping the magical world alive and interesting.
Thank-you!
I think wandmakers study xylomancy as a perquisite to wandlore. I'm surprised wand lore is not a subject at Hogwarts. Maybe there is part of it studied in ancient studies or another subject.
Before watching the video, here's my attempt at remembering all 25 subjects:
- Arithmancy
- Study of Ancient Runes
- Beasts/Study of Magical Creatures
- Transfiguration
- Charms
- Potions
- Defence Against the Dark Arts
- Divination
- Astronomy
- Muggle Studies
- Flying (?) Not sure if it counts
- Alchemy
I must be missing some really obvious ones, lol. I could only remember 12 out of 25.

Lemme try.
•Arithmancy
•DADA
•Transfiguration
•Muggle Studies
•Muggle Art
•Muggle Music
•COMC
•Potions
•History of Magic
•Ancient Runes or smth?-
•Charms
That's my best.
The fact that defence against the dark arts can also be called DAH-DAH is just hilarious😂😂😂😂
How does Hogwarts not have a Vulgar Latin class? All the spells are some bastardization of Latin. It seems like if you want to do magic in Harry Potter, learning Latin is where you should start.
I always wondered if using proper Latin pronunciation would affect spells
It's under history of magic
Favourite podcast episode yet! Nicely done - it would be interesting to consider what subjects you would choose were you at Hogwarts. Beside the usuals, I'd be keen on Flying, Care of Magical Creatures, Transfiguration, Field Studies, Ancient Studies, and Apparition. How many elective subjects can you choose along with the core subjects? Would it be possible to list all 25 subjects below? Thanks, and keep up the great work!
Let's try from the top of my head.
1. Charms
2. Defence against the dark arts
3. History of magic
4. Muggle studies
5. Devination
6. Flying class in year 1
7. Herbology
8. Potions
9. Study of magical creatures
10. Ancient runes
11. Arithmancy
12. Astronomy
13. Transfiguration
14. Apparation in year 6
15. Duelling class if this counts
16. ?
Just a slight correction on apparition: At least in the book, apparition is taught to all 6th years at the same time. It's taking the test that is limmitted by your age. (If the website got this wrong, then that's unfortunate)...
Correct. Only Ron and Hermonie were able to take the test out of 3. Ron failed it but Hermonie passed, as i am pretty sure was mentioned in the 6th book.
This is before watching:
Transfiguration
C.O.M.C.
D.A.D.A
Potions
Herbology
Flying
History of Magic
Charms
Muggle Studies
Arithmancy
Divination
Astronomy
Ancient Runes
Apparation (Does that one count?)
Dueling (Not sure if that one counts either.)
That's all I've got.
It seems like language classes would be vital for spell creation. Latin turns up so often in spells - surely it would be an important class. In earlier times, students might have learned Latin and Greek in Muggle school, but that is rare now.
Some of these core classes shouldn't be required for 5 years
Care of Magical Creatures and Herbology are my favorite classes
Harry would have made a fantastic defence against the dark arts professor. I have always felt that the patronus charm was one of the most useful spells in the entire series. The patronus in my opinion should be the first charm you learn in DADA. The patronus charm is an extremely valuable spell especially as you progress through your years at hogwarts. The later into your stay in the school the more time you will spend in the forbidden forest.
Astronomy is likely the one topic taught in the school that us Muggles have over on the wizarding world. Without the telescope, space probes and advanced tech we utilise to find such objects, would the magical community have been aware of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, the asteroids, distant comets, supernova and upcoming solar and lunar eclipses? Eclipses, maybe, but it's very unlikely their knowledge of the solar system was extended much beyond Saturn. Score one for the Muggles.

The thought of a modern day Muggle Music class learning about Taylor Swift or Beyonce is actually hilarious!
Arithmancy,Astronomy, charms, DADA, Divination, Flying lessons, Herbology, History of magic, potions, Muggle studies, Transfiguration, Care of Magical creatures,
Awesome. I didn't know there were so many. I recall that there are five basic classes. There is Herbology, Transfiguration, Potions and DADA. DADA is the one with the most emphasis in the movies. If there is a new character to teach the school, theier is the DADA class to show them off. All the teachers were important to the plot of of the respective book. Slughorn was a new potions teacher in Half-Blood Prince, and he was also important. The other four classes are taught by head of house, and there is an elemental connection. That was really cool. Hufflepuff and Herboloy have earth. Gryffindor and Transfiguration have fire. Slytherin and Potions have water. Ravenclaw and Charms have air. I remember Hogwarts having flying on the side. Harry excelled so well in his first year, he became a Quiddich player. I vaguely remember electives. There was divination and care of the magical creatures class. Then this video gave a lot more. Some of them I forgotten, because they are minor. There are things like History, Apparition and Muggle Studies. There are even some I never heard of before. I found it so odd that there was astonomy class. Astronomy is a science, not a magic. Did Rowling mean astrology? That woul fit so much better. It is really easy to mix the two up, because the words sound similar. "Ology" is a common suffix for sciences. I think it would make more sense if the science was called astrology, and the magic is called astomancy. I made up the word astromancy. It means "star prophecy", which is a good description of the magic. If Hogwarts students are going to go star gazing for a class, they better learn how to do horscopes and zodiac signs. The science has more to do with rockets and sattelites. Astrology horoscopes could fit in divination. However I think they are more appropriate for the star class. Divination can get really complicated in a hurry. Trelawny seems a bit frazzled as is. It would be nice to releave some of her burden. She can ignore the stars entirely. Then she can focus more on other methods like Tarot. Heck there are even other classes that are just other forms of divination. There is arithmacy, runes and the twig one. I hope Hogwarts never gets a class on reading guts. That is disgusting.
My favorite classes are DADA, Ancient Runes, Care for Magical Creatures & Ancient Studies (and all history classes)
Defence, potions, transfiguration, charms, herbology, astronomy, care of magical creatures, history of magic, flying

There's nothing stopping a Hogwarts student from enrolling in muggle university either, provided they make the requirements.
Arithmancy and Alchemy should be mandatory subjects in magical schools. Honestly, the shear weight of math in spell creation and casting, or charm making, any magical formation you are wielding should include an understanding of the calculations needed to cast and throw that magic out there!! As for Alchemy, potions is essentially just that isn't it?
Just let those wizards have a bit of fun. It's bad enough that we muggles have to go trough the torture called arithmancy and maths. I really wish I was magical and didn't have to take that subject lol.
I expect History of Magic to the closest to any real world class I've taken. Ever history class i had to take was lazily taught to the book (yaknow before teachers started complaining about teaching-to-a-test) and they never got to the end of the syllabus before the semester ran out of time. Just like Bins's lessons never reached the recent past, because he uhhhh ran out of ... time.
Is there some sort of requirement that professors change their last name if they want to teach certain classes?
What! They don't teach the construction of magical objects? There are so many objects other than say paintings to discuss but I am thinking particularly of wands and broomsticks. How for example do you construct that book that chomps through things, the lute that plays automatically? Is this merely Charms - the creation of new properties on an object?
And building homes, and repairing the school, after the battle.
I would think that someone skilled in Charms would be able to enchant magical objects as they desire. For specialized branches of construction such as wand making or goblin silver work, you probably would have to apprentice with someone
Both wands and broomsticks are under xylomancy
DADA, HOM, Transfiguration, potions, CMC, charms, apparation, divination, astronomy, alchemy, magical theory, ancient runes, arcthmancy, muggle studies, flying, helbology,
I had no idea I'd be so interested in so many classes. Ghoul studies is a big one for me
16:32 - NO! The subject is taught to any student that wants to take it in their 6th year. They can't take the test for their license until they're 17.
Can we mention how math is boiled down to an elective class? I understand magic solves most issues but even magic won’t stop the tax man
Herbology, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Charms Transfiguration, flying, Arithmancy, Divination, Potions, Care of Magical Creatures, Alchemy(6th and 7th yearonly), astronmy, 😊
If I was a Hogwarts student my electives and extras would be:
Care of Magical Creatures, Ghoul Studies, Divination, and Alchemy (if I'm Chosen).
On Wednesday nights at midnight they have to use their telescopes and the astronomy Tower. As part of the requirement of taking astronomy.
my guess of subjects
dada
comc
herbology
charms
transfiguration
flying
astronomy
divination
arithmancy
muggle studies
ancient runes
apparation might not be a class
they probably do english and other european languages
I want to know how single teachers can teach every grade level of a single subject to every house in the school?
For example, McGonagall teaches transfiguration for 7 years of students. If her classes each contain 2 houses that would mean she's teaching 14 separate classes. I'm not sure how many times a week a student has a subject, but the numbers don't add up in my head unless she has a time turner to be in 2 places st once.
It's funny, because I was thinking the same thing a couple of months ago. I used Flitwick as my example because he's my favourite teacher. Not only do the numbers for lessons not add up, but also these teachers are expected to be the head of their given house, and effectively alo-parent 70 students… The average number of students per house at Hogwarts. It's not really all that surprising, considering this load, that Hogwarts has a serious problem with pastoral care for students. There is a distinct and decided lack of pastoral care for students, and I would say that the teachers themselves would be horribly overworked. For example, getting back to Flitwick is my example, he strikes me as a very compassionate and caring person, but with a workload that has heaped on him, he wouldn't most likely no doubt struggle with wanting to give his Raven claws the pastoral care he feels they need but not be able to do so because he's human. I think that's why we see so many students be left to their own devices when frankly an adult should have stepped in. I would say personally, that Hogwarts would be a very toxic environment both for learning and for faculty to work in. Pardon any mistakes I have made here, I am using a voice dictate to do this.
I think that that is why there are entire corridors dedicated to one subject, and so many empty classrooms. I think that at some point there were multiple teachers per subject, but not anymore. Probably had something to do with the war, either that, or budget cuts.
@@rebeccastandley8573gruesome if you think that grindelwald and voldemort had such a high bodycount that it would cripple hogwarts for decades. Given that the teachers are some of the most powerfull wizards of their time i wonder how many of them killed each other during these events.
As for the subjects: they teach the whole day. 5 days per week. So they could have time for it. Also not every class is full (since students can choose their subjects) so maybe for some classes they put 3 or 4 houses together. The other teachers might help out here and there. Who knows. It can work. But surely most house teachers would be overworked and would barely have their own life outside of it.
@@uwesca6263 I'm not saying that they killed people who where already teachers, although I'm sure that did happen on occasion. I think that combined they killed and scared off people who would have become teachers. We know that Voldemort alone killed thousands of people. Also if you account for not just the deaths, but that people are less likely to want to raise a baby in that environment, then it starts to add up. And that's just the wizarding wars, we know that the wizards fought in and were affected by the muggle world wars. And you may be thinking what about the baby boom? But remember that right after the muggle war, was a wizard war, the wizarding baby boom would have been delayed, and then all of those new wiz boomers had to turn around and fight Voldemort.
They switch days, if I remember correctly. For example, students might have Transfiguration on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for an hour, and Potions on Tuesdays and Thursdays for an hour and a half. That way, all classes fit, and it’s closer to 7/8 classes a day. Still a really packed schedule, though.
They learn all maths and english etc at home before theyre 11. Wizards and witches have greater mental capacity, not to say theyre more intelligent but they can absorb and store more information and learn more quickly.
A Very Good Video 👌🏻👍🏻

For their primary teaching, I suppose a very basic education is far enough. Only basic mathematics is necessary, no need for science (we saw that pure wizards didn't knew what electricity was), and of course learning to read... and we may assume that this is provided by their parents or a tutor, since, and this is very overlooked, some students (such as Crabb and Goyle) have dificulties to read (and so write) properly, but it is hard to guess how it is evaluated during exaams (or if it is anyway).
Geometry was originally MAGIC, and the foundation of beautiful ideas about harmony. It's also used in astronomy.
apparition class is not exclusive to 17 and older. i believe its exclusive to 6 th years that either are or will turn 17 at the end of the 12 week course and take the test at the end which *is for 17 years or older*. Harry was (being in his 6th year) 16 when he learned to apparate and at the time of the test Hermione and Ron (Ron already being 17. I dont believe it was confirmed when Hermione became of age) were able to take the test except for Harry. “Harry who would not be 17 for another four months could not take the test whether ready or not”. Despite not being 17 Harry was able to learn how to apparate but couldnot take the test until he turned 17 in july
Hermione's birthday is in September, so she is well old enough for apparition lessons and a license.
@@Liutgard aye already of age to do the test. Ron’s was in march so became of age just on time for the test. Harry again being 16 took the lessons but never did the test. so i guess all of his apparitions in deathly hallows were illegal when he apparated (not including side along apparition)
It's available to all 6th years. Period. The test for licensure is the only thing restricted to being 17.

🤔 I was thinking about adding some of the skills from different classes together.
Yes; music and art come to mind as I would want to teach the children what they are doing before anything else. This would necessarily involve a sound theoretical foundation.

Video Request: What if Harry went to the Yule Ball with Ginny
I was wondering if you could have added what the class classes would be for their careers
I like the idea that Witches and Wizards don't recieve a high-school level education, and all lack knowledge on advanced biology or arithmetic. They hardly need it, regardless, as magic can solve most of the problems. It could explain why the wizarding world is so... childish (beyond the fact that they're children's books) and gives muggles a slight leg up.
Zoe Wanamaker could still play Madame Hooch in the upcoming HBO TV series. I hope she does.
History of magic, divination, transfiguration, defence against the dark arts, apparition, charms, potions, astronomy, magic theory, dark arts, care for magical creatures, herbology, alchemy, flying, dualing, muggle studies, that's all I know right now🙃
14:49 is it ever stated who taught this class during the golden trios time because in hogwarts legacy fig teaches that class
Wasn't there a class on wand lore? 🤔
I actually don't even particularly care for the Wizarding world i just like all fantasy content and this is what's available, I don't dislike it and it played a big part in my childhood and I enjoy it but like thwre is a big world of fantasy I love to get to deep dive into any fantasy setting I let the passion of others for individual subjects of fantasy and just come along for the ride
You missed Earth Magic!
2:11 well if the pronunciation matters so much, how can natsai cast alohomora sounding like alOhOmora
Really don't get why music and art are divided, given you rather need to know basic art and music before you start adding magic to it. Also rather weird field studies is new given that sounds like a course you'd want everybody planning to try and be an auror and magical beast caretaker to take.
I'm not sure if they said in the book I just moved and lost my copy and no libraries near me but when the death eater set hagrids hut on fire I know fang was inside did fang escape or did fang die in the fire? I like to think he escaped but don't remember seeing fang after that point
He escaped
You could in fact take the apparition course even if you were not 17 yo as long as your birthday's August 31 at the latest. That's how Harry could participate.
is there any info on magic higher education? i feel like i would want to learn everything that all of these classes have to offer but i don’t think its possible to take everything in your 7 years at hogwarts.
Feels like the likely answer is the wizard world still uses an apprentice program where you learn more specific magic based on your job, and then its up to independent study if what you're interested in isn't relevant to your job.
Do magical children learn reading, spelling and math from homeschooling? Or in a magical elementary school? Do you know anything about what is taught in other school like Uagadan Wizarding School.
Did I miss it or is there no class for wand making? Or even a class about wands the different types of what they can do.
Somthing about other magical schools around the world .(cant just be 3)
I wonder if regional magic like Santeria/Voodoo would be covered in History of Magic?
Regional magicks SHOULD be covered.
A survey course sampling surviving Shamanic theories and practice.
In addition to Voudon, some introduction to Native American theories and rites.
Could a muggle make potions?
I also wonder how Harry Potter became an auror when he never went back to school to do his final NEWT year.
Nepotism, he got the job bcs Kingsley needed aurora and he's a hero
Thanks for this and other videos. I'm learning a lot more about the Harry Potter universe than the movies offered. I never read the books, and I'm not sure I will.
There is so much info missing from the movies. I read the books when they all came out and I love coming back to these videos because I have definitely forgotten a lot of details
The movies do what they can with their allotted timeframe, but the books are rich with the subtle details.
The books better describe relationships between the various people while, in the movies, whole subplots are completely missing.
One thing that was included in the movies that totally pissed me off was when The Burrow burned & there was that fight with the Death eaters.
That never happened in the books. It was totally unnecessary & wasted time that could've been used to further another scenario. I never understood why it was included.
If u don't plan to ever read the books, don't ever presume you know everything about the Wizarding World. Harry Potter films apart from the first two, are pretty poor. The movies causes a lot of plot holes, gives no backstories on important characters, and has done a lot of character assissination of a lot of great characters, biggest of them, The Golden Trio themselves.
@@flyonthewall8122The books also have ORIGINAL Golden trio, while the moves did the most brutal character assissination of them, especially to Ron Weasley.
@@RabiyaRavenclaw
Agreed. It was as if they wanted to downplay the only one of the three who had been raised in the Wizarding world. He was reduced to a supporting character & not a nice one at that.

O man I didn't get very far. Lol
Well of course there’s math involved. You need a PhD to understand knuts, sickles, and galleons, and even then nobody agrees on their value
I don´t understand why squibs are not allowed to go to Hogwarts? I lot of the lessons don´t require magic at all.
Because SQUIBS would always be 2nd class citizens of the magical community; integrating them would require something like Disability Services.
I would give anything to be reborn into that world with all my muggle knowledge and go to Hogwarts as kid. I think I would end up being like Hermione and needing a time turner to be able to attend all the classes I sign up for.
Harry had to do a lot of divination in the later movies.
You forgot about GEOGRAPHY! In the wizarding world, the vast majority of wizards seem to be extremely knowledgeable about world and local geography. Unless English and Scottish primary school is vastly more concentrated on this subject than other countries, I suspect that Hogwarts must have some sort of education system teaching the kids about other countries. It is not as if that kind of knowledge has been suggested to get into their minds by osmosis.
I love this video ❤
