<<<OK, I know its ridiculous to start talking about Book 5 now, but I
will anyway. In the fifth year, some students are made prefects. I have
the impression that 2 students from each House, one male and one female,
are made prefects, but I could be making that up. Who do you think will
be the Gryffindor prefects? Hermione is a natural, but will Harry be
a prefect?>>>

Wouldn't it be a great plot twist if Draco Malfoy was made a Slytherin
prefect? We know that he must get good marks in Potions, (although
probably not Care of Magical Creatures) but no other mention of his
grades is made other that Lucius Malfoy's comment in CoS that Draco
"should be ashamed that a girl of no wizarding parentage beat [him]
in every exam." (Sorry, don't have the book close at hand, so I can't
give an exact quote...)

Could this mean that Draco is ranked second in the class? That could
definitely indicate that he could become a prefect in Book 5. He wouldn't
have any "jurisdiction" over Harry & crew, since they're Gryffindors,
but it would give him a little leverage with teachers...

What do y'all think?
