Electives

[alt_seamus]

So Mr Rosier owled me this morning already and had all sorts of advice about what I should take. He said I didn't need to ask Professor Lockhart for a recommendation to take Dark Arts because he'd write to Miss Professor Carrow himself. He said Divination can be worth taking simply to reinforce how 'generally inapplicable to anything in particular' it is, and that Care of Magical Creatures is enjoyable but 'somewhat overspecialised,' I think he means I'm not likely to wind up as a dragon keeper like Charlie Weasley. And he said Arithmancy was 'intellectually taxing but potentially highly rewarding to a diligent student' and Ancient Runes is 'more useful than you'd think, but less useful than you'd hope.'

So I still don't know.

Other than Dark Arts. If I get in, anyway. He definitely thought I should take Dark Arts if Miss Professor Carrow would let me.

Father has lots of advice too. Obviously I'm to take Dark Arts. He told me to take Ancient Runes also 'it's part of our heritage.'

You might not become a dragon keeper but Care of Magical Creatures looks fun doesn't it?

It does look fun. Mr Rosier said if I took three electives it would be all right to take one class just because it looked fun, so I could maybe take Dark Arts, Arithmancy, and Care of Magical Creatures. OR I could take Dark Arts, Arithmancy, and Divination. Magical Creatures sounds more fun than Divination anyway.
