I took Hermione to be two months younger than Harry (i.e., just turning
13). In San Diego, the cut-off birthday for starting school is (I believe)
the end of November. With my January birthday, I was one of the oldest
in my class; people born in September, October or November were the
youngest. But I don't know how they do it in England.

It also struck me as odd that the only three birthdays mentioned (that I
remember) are Harry's, Hermione's and Dudley's. When is Ron's birthday? Or
the other Weasleys', or their other schoolmates'? Or are they all in the
summer, when Harry doesn't see them? Maybe people born between June and
September have a higher propensity (sp?) for magic <g>.
