I have been spending quite a lot of time on Pottermore, mostly for blog posts and school work (I am designing a Fantastic Beasts website!). And after doing the Another Harry Potter Tag, I thought about making a tag that asks all sorts of questions about what we would do if we were Hogwarts students. So here we go!
What pet would you take to Hogwarts?
Even though I am very much a cat person, I would have to take an owl! How could you not?
What school supply would you want to get first? (Books, wand, robes, etc.)
My wand. It’s probably the most special item you can get on that first visit to Diagon Alley.
What house are you in?
RAVENCLAW!
What core class would you love to take? (Astronomy, Charms, Defence Against the Dark Arts, Flying, Herbology, History of Magic, Potions, or Transfiguration)
I feel like I am a Charms or Transfiguration person the most.
What core class would you hate to take?
Potions. 1) Snape and 2) It’s basically magical chemistry, and I am terrible at chemistry
What elective would you take? (Alchemy, Apparition, Arithmancy, Care of Magical Creatures, Divination, Muggle Studies, or Ancient Runes?)
Care of Magical Creatures my third-fifth year, and Apparition my sixth or seventh when it becomes available.
What magical item do you want to own? (Remembrall, Marauder’s Map, Invisibility Cloak, etc.)
I would want an invisibility cloak, but would probably need a Remembrall.
What are you doing in your free time at Hogwarts?
Relaxing in the common room, going to watch the Quidditch games, and wandering the castle.
You’re going to Hogsmeade! What is your first stop?
Probably going to go get a Butterbeer at the Three Broomsticks, or getting sweets from Honeydukes.
What Hogwarts secret would you want to find? (Mirror of Erised, Room of Requirement, etc.)
Room of Requirement, as it would be beneficial somehow.
Would you put your name in the goblet of fire?
No, I don’t have that much blind courage. This Ravenclaw is an overthinker.
Would you join Dumbledore’s Army?
Yes! Teach me the Defences for the Dark Arts.
What spell do you want to master?
Expecto Patronum. It is my favorite spell.
What magical career would you want to go into? (Pro Quidditch Player, Auror, Dragon Keeper, etc.)
I’d probably be a good teacher at Hogwarts, but I don’t know what I’d teach.
If you want to do this tag yourself, here are the questions!

so fun! I did one too. https://literarynox.home.blog/2019/02/21/hogwarts-tag/
I agree with a lot of your answers as well. “Wit beyond measure IS man’s greatest treasure.” And yeah, I would completely take McGonagall’s class every. time. I imagine she was like my grammar/Jane Austen professor – seemingly no nonsense but throwing shade when folks aren’t listening.
Another Ravenclaw here, unsurprising that there’s so many of us reading and writing. This idea’s pretty fun, I think I’ll have to give it a go.
