Yes, but why wouldn't Snape know? I would think ALL the faculty 
members would have to be appraised of Hermione's schedule and the 
method she was using to take seven classes in a five-period week. 

And I would think Hermione taking two classes at once would be 
noticeable to more than just Harry and Ron. All the students in both 
classes would wonder about it too. 

But when Fudge said: "They can't be in two places at once" then it 
should have been Snape who got the light bulb off in his head. Of 
course, he'd have had to prove they mis-used the TT and maybe he 
wouldn't be able to.
