Who wouldn’t like to get admitted in to Hogwarts, the school of Wizardry and Witchcraft, I mean there is an obvious reason a.k.a magic. But what is other than wizardry and witchcraft that is so tempting about the school? Well, among all the things appealing about Hogwarts, the abundance of various subjects made available is definitely on the list. Include both the core curriculum and the electives, available from third year forward. In the fifth year, students take the Ordinary Wizarding Level (O.W.L.) exams to determine whether they can achieve a score high enough to continue to N.E.W.T.-level (Nastily Exhausting Wizarding Test) for the class in the remaining two years. Some classes even the core classes can be oped out of in the sixth year with an advantage of opting for subjects like Alchemy.
Though there is feasibility for students to apply for Time-Turner classes given that the timetable of the students allows it. Though on very rare occasions, this can be suggested to an individual by their house head, but all the students have a choice regarding whether or not they wanna opt for it. The choice is usually provided to students to make sure that these classes do not become a burden for these students.
The choices and options for various subjects increase as the student promotes to the next year but in the first year it is mandatory for the student to attend the seven core subjects: Transfiguration, Charms, Potions, History of Magic, Defence Against the Dark Arts, Astronomy and Herbology. Flying lessons (on broomsticks). Whereas flying lessons is the only subject which ends up being an option in the second year.
