▲ 340 ▼ Does Harry Potter only know fifth grade math? (leminal.space) submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by CorrodedCranium@leminal.space to c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world 162 comments fedilink hide all child comments He was abducted by Hagrid when he turned 11 so that would place him maybe around the fifth or sixth grade. I don't know if canonically there are math classes at Hogwarts. The thought came to while I was watching the anime Mashle. If you are into Harry Potter and One-Punch Man I'd recommend giving it a watch. Someone mentioned this community below; I wanted to highlight it. Small promotion for !harrypotter@literature.cafe
