Oh yes. That reminds me of something I saw the other day - about how Hogwarts is the worst sort of school.
Which does mean that Hermione is going to be so screwed, in a way. She's clearly so intelligent, such a thirst for knowledge - she'd do so well in an academic setting.
And yet...
It also makes you wonder what else they can do. What are they set up for? Just working in the ministry? setting up quaint little shops? The whole adult society isn't well thought out - but then again, they're kids.
A lot of people thought the epilogue was pretty much like a Mary-sue dream. Someone takes a story and pairs up all the characters they liked and everyone gets MARRIED. Male-female PERFECTLY. and they all had little kids and a picketfence and a dog.
The end.
Just.. bwah ,waht? Does no one actually figure out that hey, inter-house rivalry is a bunch of crock? (Actually since the ADULTS act like it's the be-all-and end all of character references... hm). Does no one actually go and get acquainted with other school people? Other muggles? Just. blah.
