Portions of this are repeat from prior post, but some new thoughts 
were bursting out.  Sorry.  I know Harry will get into the right NEWT 
courses and continue with his training towards being an auror.  The 
potions problem will resolve itself, because Harry was tested by an 
impartial panel and he thought he "might have done better than a 
fail" so he will get an Acceptable, or better.  Most of his other 
grades will be Exceptionals or Outstandings so he will be close to 
getting in NEWT program.   

JKR can deal with Snape's requiring an Outstanding in Potions OWLS 
by : A. Having someone other than Snape teach Potions, since Snape 
will be very busy playing "spy" now that the war is upon us, and the 
new teacher will NOT be as stringent on grades; B. Dumbledore or 
Fudge could override Snape's decision (probably not Fudge I suspect 
he will no longer be in office); C. Grades could be changed? before 
final decison is made...

Alas, I doubt that Harry will proceed too far on his path toward 
becoming an auror, because I feel there is not enough time in the 
next two books, and that JKR may be planning a melancholy, yet 
wonderful demise for our hero.
