...I'm not sure how he's going to manage a Potions NEWT anyway, 
seeing as how he almost certainly didn't get an "O" for his Potions 
OWL and Snape requires an O for his NEWT classes.

<Atropos G.>  Well, that may be Snape's take on the situation, but...
1.  Harry was tested by an impartial panel and he thought he "might 
have done better than a fail" so lets say he gets an Acceptable, if 
most of Transfiguration, Charms, DADA, Hx. of Magic are Exceptionals 
or Outstandings he could get into the NEWT program, IF...

A.  Someone other than Snape teaches Potions, because Snape gets very 
busy playing "spy" now that the war is upon us, and new teacher only 
requires Acceptable or better;  B. Dumbledore or Fudge could override 
Snape's decision; C. Grades are changed? before decison is made...
