I've got a question about Hermione possibly aging at an increased
rate 3rd year from use of the time turner.
I haven't spent 'way too much' time doing speculative math, but
Hermione must have aged extra hours during PoA through her use of
the Time Turner, but hoe much?
>From the book, I believe she had almost triple classes which would
mean she might have aged 26-27 hours for each 24 hour day. I suggest
she might have occasionally abused the time turner to get extra
sleep and study at the same time.
During breaks, I believe Hermione was the only 3rd year Gryffindor
girl at Hogwarts and might very well have taken advantage of having
a private bedroom to sleep and study at the same time.
The result of overuse of the time turner would be that Hermione
might now be older than Harry or Ron. Could she have gained an extra
6 months during her third year? This would explain why Hermione
seems so much more mature than Harry or Ron. (It also makes it less
creepy that Krum at 18 yo is so smitten by Hermione at 15 yo.)
