Ron and Harry end up in all of the NEWT classes they wanted to be in - rather surprising if you consider how Rowling generally depicts their homework and exams. And they do better in Potions than all but four Ravenclaws? Remarkable. Great stuff with the schedules scene and McGonagall, though, not only the Neville bits. Incidentally, Neville's Exceeds Expectations on DADA puts him on equal footing with Hermione (and, presumably, Ron).
