My marks came yesterday and I'm mostly pretty pleased. I mean I'm very pleased. I'm second from the top of the class and that's really nothing to complain about.

I had 91% in Transfiguration. I think it would have been higher but the last week of classes Professor Carrow lowered my mark three times because he said I was showing off. At the time I was just relieved not to be losing house points but now -- well anyway I did better in Charms than in Transfiguration which surprised me.

Anyway Longbottom how did you do in Transfiguration, did you scrape out a passing mark at least? I suppose you could tell me by owl if you don't want to put it in the journals, but owls take so much longer than talking in here.

I did scrape out a passing grade, yes. Uh, I won't tell you how low it was, because--well, it's about as low as I could get while still passing. And I don't think I could have done that except for your help, so thanks. Transfiguration was the lowest, but I did better than I expected in Potions, and really not bad in Herbology. Gran read me a lecture about the Transfiguration mark, because I think she thinks its expected of her, but her heart wasn't really in it, because she doesn't think much of Pro it certainly wasn't a surprise.

I think it's really unfair, but I can guess why you got your mark lowered in Transfi

Well, anyway, glad to hear you got such good marks.
