To her relief he was getting straight to the point and starting the actual interview. She'd never been interviewed for anything in her life, not as intensely as she was expecting to be here, but she'd tried to prepare herself as best she could.

"Alchemy." So far so good hopefully. "I enjoyed picking up a new subject at NEWT level even if it did have its challenges." That E nestled tauntingly amongst her O's would never cease to frustrate her, she was sure if she could go back and retake the test the result would be different but there was nothing to be done about it now. If she was a little kinder to herself she would let herself off the hook for it, she'd put enormous pressure on herself at the time and nearly cracked under it.
