I thought I knew Harry Potter better...
This quiz roasted me and said if this were an OWL exam I'd fail it :( What did you get?

There are two innacuracies in this quiz:
1) It was Albus Dumbledore who said 'fear of a name only increases fear of the thing itself' in book #2. In the films, Hermione says it. If the question was indeed referring to the films, it should have specified beforehand, but eitherway, it is atrocious that I was told clearly, after guessing Dumbledore, that Hermione says it in book #1
2) Godric Gryffindor's sword is not, in itself, capable of destroying horcruxes. The only reason it could be used for this is because it is goblin-made, so imbibes that which strengthens it, so since Harry used it to fight the basilisk in book #2, it gained the ability to destroy horcruxes through the venom it absorbed.
I sincerely hope these corrections are made.

Yeah, those two questions had me enraged. I clearly remember Albus Dumbledore saying that quote, and the sword wasn't supposed to destroy by itself, but as phoenix tears were the more "wrong" answer, I chose that and got it right.

You are 100% correct, and I got the fear of a name question “wrong” because of this.

I got an Outstanding, but saw those inaccuracies too. Hermione quotes Dumbledore.

It said that if this were an OWL Exam I’d get an outstanding and hermione may be a little jealous

Even w/ the inaccuracies? Wait. Nvrmnd. U like the films not the books, right? Dumbledore said 'fear of a name increases fear of the thing itself', not Hermione.

I got Exceeds Expectations, which is good, because I would get that in actual school and not Hogwarts.

I have read the books and watched the movies, and I got some wrong but I knew the right answer. I would accadently move the mouse because there is roadwork happing right now and the sudden noise makes me jump.

Hermione would be upset, but shes unfair. (Kinda. Not everyone can be as smart as her)

Yeah in the books she was actually normal but in the movies the people made her absolutely perfect and I don’t like it
