MuggleNet’s Ordinary Wizarding Level exams (O.W.L.s) daily progress report – Today: Defense Against the Dark Arts

by Keith Hawk · July 18, 2013

Here is the next daily progress report on the status of the MuggleNet Ordinary Wizarding Level examinations that are taking place in the Great Hall. If you haven’t started your exams yet, head over to the Great Hall to register and receive your candidate number in order to begin taking your MuggleNet O.W.L. exams. The exams will be available through Sunday, July 28.

On today’s daily MuggleNet Ordinary Wizarding Level examination (O.W.L.) progress report, we take a look at the subject of Defense Against the Dark Arts.

 

  • Total candidates taking O.W.L. exams: 5,262
  • Total number of examinations taken: 16,969
Exam Total Exams O E A P D T
Defense Against the Dark Arts 1,976 64 140 464 654 555 99

 

For those of you who have not taken all of the O.W.L. exams yet, we will give you one difficult question and answer each day from the test bank over the course of the next two weeks. Keep in mind that not all questions come from the seven volume book series. Some questions come from a variety of sources related to the world of Harry Potter like Famous Wizards Cards, Daily Prophets, JKR interviews, Pottermore, etc.

Defense Against the Dark Arts: How would one defend themselves against a Lethifold?

    • Answer: Patronus Charm

Note: The question bank has additional questions in each category than the number of questions you must answer. Since the questions are randomly selected for each test, there is a chance you may not get the questions we share with you.

Most of all, we ask that you have fun and share your results with us on Facebook and Twitter.

Good luck to all!

Potter Quote

“My brothers, my sisters. The clock is ticking faster. We who live for freedom, for truth, and for love. The moment has come to share my vision of the future that awaits if we do not rise up and take our rightful place in the world. Where we wizards are free. Aurors, join me in this circle, pledge to me your eternal allegiance, or die.”
