She shook her head slightly. "Okay, Laura, but as I said, no pressure. The only person placing expectations on you is yourself. Do your best in your best subjects. You don't have to take ALL the tests, you know. So focus on your strengths and minimize your weaknesses. Okay? That's all we ask here at....."
"Because I was a fool and acted the fool when I was younger." Laura sighed, she was still a bit upset about that fact but there was nothing she could do about it. "I'm going to try and get my Potions and Muggle Study exams up-to an O to go with my Transfiguration and Defence Against the Dark Arts grade." Laura was going to continue when she suddenly realised there was other people here and she had the funny urge to put her hands up and say it wasn't me but she managed to avoid doing that, she gave them both a nod and then looked back at the Head.
"Anyway I was wondering what do you think I would be good at?" Laura had no idea herself so she thought that she would ask the headmistress to see if she knew.
